TEXARKANA, Texas - A conference room at the Texarkana Texas Convention Center could be heard with uplifting music and shouts of praise as volunteers for Tacos 4 Life and Feed My Starving Children packed meals on Saturday.
Tacos 4 Life has been in Texarkana for over eight years and this is its twelfth mobile pack, which yielded over a million and a half meals packed for needy children. Each mobile pack has made over 100,00 meals per session.
"For our mission at Tacos 4 Life we, every taco, quesadilla, rice bowl, etc., that we sell, the meal is donated to feed a starving child," said Tacos 4 Life Texarkana Owner Toney Livingston. "So, we partner with Feed My Starving Children, and that's who's with us here today; they bring in all the ingredients and we have a little over 100 volunteers at each session and they help us pack the meals that are going to go around the world."
Each event takes about 600 volunteers and two sessions were organized on both Friday and Saturday.
