Our Story
Our Chapter of Mary's Meals was founded in the late fall of 2017 and came about when two friends, Makenzie and Rachel, realized how much they missed Mary's Meals from their previous undergrad school. Rachel and Makenzie started to recruit other individuals on Pitts campus to become officers. Courtney came along not too long after right before the Christmas break. It was during the break that more interest built and Catie and Brittany came on board, along with Audrey. After the break they had their first unofficial founding meeting where they talked about the constitution and figured out how to become a club.

After this meeting Taylor came on board and it wasn't long before the final piece of the puzzle, Morgan, became the final founding officer. On February 1st they submitted to become an official group through the University. However, it wasn't until March 12th, 2018 that the club became recognized by the University and all the months of hard work finally paid off. The founders worked hard to make a club that at its core was about ending world hunger, that brought students from all areas of study together, and turned strangers into friends while looking to do something today to make a better tomorrow.
