#HashtagLunchbag was born on Christmas Day 2012 in a Los Angeles apartment with just a small group of friends. The intent was simple, to prepare and deliver a hearty and well-balanced meal to their local homeless community. They all chipped in a few bucks before taking a quick trip to the grocery store and purchasing a few goodies. They invited over a few more friends to help assemble the lunch bags, blasted some music, and then hit the streets.
The friends decided to share their experience via social media using #HasttagLunchbag and the rest, as they say, is history.
