Convoy of Hope Delivers 50 Million Meals.

Boxes of food are distributed to families as part of Convoy of Hope’s "50 Million Meals and Counting" COVID-19 response.

Volunteers load hundreds of cars at a point of distribution with much needed food and supplies from Convoy of Hope.

Convoy of Hope's fleet of semi-trucks continue to roll across the nation delivering food and much needed relief to communities hit hard by the pandemic. "While we've accomplished a lot because of the generosity of donors, corporations, churches and civic groups, there's still so much need — and it's not going away any time soon," said Donaldson. "We're incredibly grateful to have reached this milestone, but now isn't the time to take a step back."
