Whitney's company Tacos 4 Life has provided 18856,000 meals for those in need. It's not a far cry from what she has lived most of her life, which was in restaurants.From Whitney:"We have been a proud part of the Brentwood community since April 2022, joining together to raise meals for children in need with every meal purchased. We make our food using ingredients you know and love. Thank you for joining us in our mission to help end world hunger!"As a guest at Tacos 4 Life you have the unique and exciting opportunity to help end childhood hunger around the world. Our strategy is simple -- for every taco, bowl, salad, quesadilla, or nachos purchased a portion is donated to Feed My Starving Children (FMSC), our non-profit partner. FMSC has developed a scientifically formulated MannaPack Rice Meal that provides children with the nutrients they need to grow strong and healthy. MannaPacks are made up of rice, vitamins, soy and veggies and are sent to over 70 countries where they are distributed through schools, orphanages and CarePoints. We believe that food is the foundation that allows children to also receive medical care, education and skills training. We have seen firsthand the life-changing impact that each meal provides and the hope it brings to the children who receive it.
