Proud to be a corporate partner with Feed the Children
We are passionate about giving back to the communities in which we live and work. We partner with and support organizations around the globe that contribute to fighting hunger and supporting the growth and development of children and teens.
Our most significant partnership is with Feed the Children, a leading nonprofit focused on alleviating childhood hunger. As part of our partnership in 2021, we conducted a 10-city “Alliance to Defeat Hunger” tour with Feed the Children and Tyson Foods to provide food and essentials to vulnerable families. During the four-month initiative, we served thousands of families across the U.S., supplementing nearly 2 million meals and providing more than 250 tons of foods and essentials to families valued at nearly $1.9 million.
