Wells Fargo has donated $10,000 to support a unique community effort to provide a half-million meals for malnourished children around the world.

The contribution to the 2012 Sacramento Region Feed My Starving Children MobilePack event will cover the cost of more than 45,000 meals toward the goal of packing 500,000 meals, organizers said. It is the largest sponsorship for the 2012 MobilePack and the third year that Wells Fargo has provided a leadership sponsorship for the event. During the first two years, the MobilePack event packed a total of more than 786,000 meals for malnourished children in 2011 and 2012.   

This year’s MobilePack event is being held at William Jessup University in Rocklin, beginning at 6 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 15 and ending at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 17.
