Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana and Entergy Team Up to Fight Food Insecurity Across Louisiana

Louisiana Blue, Healthy Blue Louisiana and Entergy have teamed up to help fight food insecurity in Louisiana. Learn more about the Million Meals for MLK campaign and volunteer opportunities across the state.

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana (Louisiana Blue), Healthy Blue Louisiana and Entergy Louisiana are teaming up to host a community meal-packing party for New Orleanians on Martin Luther King Jr. Day (Jan. 19). This event supports the second Million Meals for MLK campaign from Volunteer Louisiana and Feeding Louisiana, which aims to collect one million or more meals for local food banks during January. 

Employees from these organizations and their families will gather at Dillard University’s Dent Hall Natatorium and pack “oh seaux good” red beans and rice meal kits that include Louisiana-grown rice donated by Cajun Country Rice in Crowley. They’ll be joined by volunteers from Divine Nine Greek organizations at local universities. Second Harvest Food Bank will distribute all meals packed at this event to local families in need.
