Help Spread Love One Bag at a Time
Miles To Go (or MTG for short) is a 501c3 non-profit founded by a 9-year-old boy, named Miles, who lives in Orlando, Florida.
After seeing an unsheltered person in need at a traffic stoplight, Miles became determined to let people living without a home know that they matter.
Miles and his family then came up with special "to-go" bags filled with essential items to give out on such occasions.
Those bags are now distributed all over Orlando and beyond!
If YOU have a heart to let unsheltered people in YOUR community know that they matter, YOU can help spread love one bag at a time by joining the MTG BAG-PACKING CHALLENGE!
For every set of bag contents you collect, you'll be eligible to receive an MTG bag, an MTG T-shirt, a pair of Bombas® socks, and a "YOU MATTER!" card to complete packing each of your bags.
Individuals, families, schools, youth organizations, and other groups are welcome!
Packed bags may be given out individually or donated to a shelter of your choice.
