On Saturday, November 5th, Mountain Mission Incorporated was part of a once-in-a-lifetime event that resulted in the setting of a GUINNESS WORLDS RECORD title for largest packaged food word! An amazing 25,550 cans of new food were used in spelling out “MOUNTAINEERS” on Kanawha Boulevard in front of the West Virginia State Capitol. Countless days of preparation and hours of hard work by a lot of caring individuals culminated in a day of celebration for not only Mountain Mission and the people we serve, but for the State of West Virginia.
