# Master Provisions Celebrates Success of 9th Annual MPower Lunch
[MPower Lunch](https://masterprovisions.org/master-provisions-blog/tag/mpower-lunch) [Events](https://masterprovisions.org/master-provisions-blog/tag/events) [Fundraising](https://masterprovisions.org/master-provisions-blog/tag/fundraising)
Master Provisions hosted the 9th annual MPower Lunch presented by Douglas and Desma Borland Charitable Fund on Monday, October 24, 2022. The event welcomed over 225 attendees, and was held at First Church of Christ in Burlington, Kentucky. As Master Provisions’ largest annual fundraiser, the lunch raised funds towards feeding 70,000 people monthly, supporting sustainability projects in eight nations, and training students with special needs.
Below is video of the main program. A great chance to hear from Chuck Session and all of our speakers again.
The theme for the lunch was “Share Hope Across All Generations”.
The event featured keynote speaker Chuck Session, former Vice President of Government Affairs at Duke Energy Ohio/Kentucky. Special guests included Darin Mirante, Lead Pastor at First Church who shared a message on the importance of supporting our community through monthly giving. Scotty Simpson, Pastor at Sherman Church of Christ served as emcee, and Ryan Turner, Chairman of the Board for Master Provisions provided an update on the future of Master Provisions in the coming year.
Other sponsors of the event:
What a great time of networking, fellowship, generosity, and tasty food. Thank you to all who attended and invested time and resources in a life and mission-altering day.
