JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Members of the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp's front office volunteered at Maxwell House Wednesday to help package 50,000 meals for Rise Against Hunger's packaging event.

"We are thankful to have been included in such a great event," said Jumbo Shrimp Director of Community Relations Andrea Williams. "We're proud to partner with our neighbors at the Maxwell House to be able to do something so impactful! At our very core, we strive to be great community stewards and give back to a community that gives us so much."

Over two hours, the Jumbo Shrimp packaged meals of 23 essential vitamins and nutrients, vegetables, soy protein and white rice. The event was the first in the offseason for the club's annual #ShrimpService.
