16th Annual Million Meal Marathon Presented by

Million Meal Marathon


Join Million Meal Movement as we take over Gainbridge Fieldhouse from center court and fight hunger at home!

What is the Million Meal Marathon?

The Million Meal Marathon is our signature event, and in 2027, we’ll celebrate 16 years of fighting hunger at home. The Marathon will feed Hoosiers in need and unite the local community as we work together to fight hunger at home.

Join us and our presenting sponsor, KeyBank, at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in downtown Indianapolis on  February 10, 2026 to make a difference for Hoosiers in need.

All meals packed at the Million Meal Marathon benefit Hoosiers experiencing food insecurity and are delivered to food pantries throughout Indiana. We need you to make the Million Meal Marathon a success! Here are ways to get involved:

Become a Sponsor:  sponsorship opportunities

Rising food, gas, and housing costs have placed an incredible burden on Hoosiers. Food banks are experiencing an unprecedented surge in visits. Nearly one in eight children in Indiana doesn’t know where they’ll get their next meal. Your participation ensures that Hoosier kids and families can hunger for something greater than their next meal. Here are 4 ways to engage with us.

Why should you become a Million Meal Marathon sponsor?

  • Engage your employees, family, friends, and youth in a meaningful, hands-on, high-energy volunteer experience.
  • Give your company a visible presence in the community.
  • Help fight hunger at home.
  • Enjoy special recognition and benefits depending on your sponsorship level.

For more information on becoming a partner and the benefits included, call us at 317-863-8655 or email us at info@millionmealmovement.org.

Pack Meals With Us

Fight hunger at home on the court at Gainbridge Fieldhouse! Individuals and families/small groups are invited to pack meals during the afternoon and evening shifts. All participants will receive a free commemorative t-shirt!

Volunteer With Us: Extra Helping Hands Volunteer 

Our non-packing volunteers, affectionately known as the Helping Hands, help us run the Million Meal Marathon, making it possible for participants to pack one million meals daily. This upbeat, hands-on experience is family-friendly and engaging. Everyone has a job, and we welcome families to serve together. We have multiple volunteer opportunities available the week of the Marathon.  

 

Support Us With a Donation

We understand that not everyone is able to volunteer in person this year. You can still help us fight hunger at home. With your support, we’ll deliver meals to your Indiana neighbors who struggle with hunger. Every $1 you give provides 2 meals to a Hoosier experiencing food insecurity. Donate today!
