The young people were taking part in the 61st Annual Lott Carey Youth Seminar, which is designed to empower young people to make a missionary impact worldwide.
The 600 mostly teens were visiting WSSU from the District of Columbia and seven states (N.C., N.Y., N.J., D.C., MD., PA., VA) for a week of serving, learning, worship, and fellowship.

The other 90,000 meals will be distributed globally.
