Richardson is one of the nonprofit's eight permanent packing sites where volunteers are mobilized to pack meals that are then distributed around the world.

Pham is close to hitting 500 food-packing sessions, and she has set up 900 groups to go and do the same thing.

The Minnesota-based Feed My Starving Children says Pham is making a difference in the fight against hunger and wanted to recognize her spirit of service during Women's History Month.

Pham says she volunteers in memory of her dad because he always encouraged his family to give back.
