Team Hill Airmen contribute to local, global food aid effort

Hill Air Force Base

KAYSVILLE, UTAH — In a display of community service, 27 Team Hill Airmen volunteered their time at the Deseret Mill and Pasta facility in Kaysville, Utah on May 3, 2024.

Volunteers packaged and palletized pasta and fruit products for distribution to those in need, both locally and across the globe.

The event was part of the base’s Project One Initiative, which seeks to foster a sense of unity and collaboration between base personnel and the surrounding communities.

By participating in such activities, Airmen not only contribute to the well-being of others but also strengthen the ties that bind them to their neighbors.

The Deseret Mill and Pasta is owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and plays a crucial role in the church’s welfare program, which aims to provide food for humanitarian efforts and emergency home storage.
