Founding

Richard Proudfit, a Minneapolis business man, founded the organization in 1987 after visiting Honduras after a hurricane and seeing food insecurity among children.

The organization recruits volunteers including school children to assist in packing. They also employ paid staff to supervise the operations. [2] FMSC has eight packing facilities: three in Minnesota (Coon Rapids, Eagan and Chanhassen), three in Illinois (Aurora, Libertyville and Schaumburg), one in Richardson, Texas, and one in Tempe, Arizona.
