Plates with Purpose

At Pack Away Hunger, we believe that a stronger community begins with access to nutritious food. For more than 15 years, we have been bringing people together to fight food insecurity in Central Indiana and beyond, providing millions of meals to individuals and families facing hunger.

On September 23, we invite you to be part of something special at our inaugural Plates with Purpose fundraising dinner hosted by Magdalena, the acclaimed New Orleans-inspired restaurant in Indianapolis’ Fountain Square neighborhood. This one-night-only experience will bring together community leaders, philanthropists, and food enthusiasts for an unforgettable evening of exceptional cuisine, meaningful connection, and collective impact.

In a unique collaboration, Magdalena’s award-winning culinary team is incorporating Pack Away Hunger’s scientifically formulated Nutri-Plenty® meal into a specially crafted amuse-bouche, offering guests a creative and inspiring reflection of our mission to nourish communities around the world.

Your ticket purchase to this event does more than reserve a seat at an extraordinary three-course dinner with drink pairings—it helps provide nutritious meals to individuals and families experiencing food insecurity. Every guest plays a direct role in advancing Pack Away Hunger’s mission and creating lasting change.

Seats are limited. Join us for an evening where every plate serves a purpose and every ticket helps fight hunger.
