Every week, we set up in small towns, firing up the grill to serve freshly made burgers to anyone who stops by. And the best part? It’s all completely free of charge! But that’s just the beginning of our story.

When disaster strikes, we’re there to provide disaster relief and support. During devastating events like hurricanes and forest fires, we respond with a hot meal. We offer comfort and sustenance to those in need.

At Feed the Need Missions, we believe in making a lasting impact, one that extends far beyond full stomaches. Join us as we spread compassion, hope, and the message of love through the simple act of sharing a meal. Together, we can make a difference, one burger at a time.
