About Us

Our Impact

We believe hunger is unacceptable and that meals can change lives.

That’s why we provide millions of meals’ worth of food to our hundreds of food pantry and meal program partners, who serve seniors, veterans, children and anyone else in need.

We believe the solution to hunger goes beyond food.

That’s why we tackle it at the roots by providing educational materials, making nutritious foods a priority and partnering with organizations fighting hunger in innovative ways, such as food clubs.

How We Put These Beliefs into Action in 2021:
