Students from the Rogers Hope Squad spent Saturday, Sept. 5, assembling sandwiches and chip bags for Feed the City at the group's monthly volunteer session in Prosper.

The school posted photos of the effort on its X account the following day, thanking staff members Mrs. Bradham and Mrs. Sigman for organizing the outing. The post praised the student volunteers for showing up and serving the community.

It was a hands-on morning.

Feed the City's Prosper chapter meets the first Saturday of every month at Chili's on South Preston Road, where volunteers assemble sack lunches. Tango Charities, the North Texas nonprofit behind Feed the City, then distributes the meals to people experiencing homelessness in the area.

The organization started in Dallas on Jan. 10, 2015, after setting a Guinness World Record for the most people making sandwiches at the same time. Since then, Feed the City has held more than 1,700 events across five countries and provided more than 7 million meals, according to its JustServe listing.

Hope Squad is a peer-support program for students in grades 6 through 12. Classmates nominate members they see as trustworthy, and those students are trained to spot warning signs in peers and connect them with adults, according to the Prosper Education Foundation. The program's mission is to reduce youth suicide through education, training and peer intervention.

The program has drawn attention beyond Prosper ISD. In November 2025, Hope Squad members met with visitors from Poland who were exploring how to bring the model to their own schools, Prosper ISD said on X.

The Prosper Education Foundation funds Hope Squad across the district. In December 2025, PEF featured the program during its "12 Days of Giving" campaign.

Feed the City's Prosper chapter meets the first Saturday of each month at Chili's on South Preston Road. The next session falls on Oct. 3.
