Hundreds of families received holiday care packages during the No Hunger Holiday event held in Indianapolis, Indiana. Families received a 25-pound box of food; a 15-pound box of much-needed essentials such as shampoo, conditioner, lotion and personal-care items.

Bikersinc, in collaboration with Feed the Children, hosted a drive-thru to distribute 400 of these packages Saturday, Dec. 31, 2022.

These packages were available to the general public from 2:00 p.m till around 4:00 p.m. at Bikersinc, located at 1761 North Sherman Drive, Indianapolis, Indiana.
