Students from Carroll High School packed them up so volunteers could deliver them to those who requested a meal.

One family volunteering their time today says they are continuing a tradition they started last year.

"I like to do it because I like to help people, and one of my favorite things to do is help," said

In all, volunteers delivered 1,200 meals across the city of Corpus Christi.

The big sit-down meal for the annual H-E-B Feast of Sharing gets underway tomorrow at 11 a.m. at the American Bank Center.
