Libby’s Vegetables is redefining the good in canned goods.
To help hungry families in need, Libby’s and Feeding America are holding a Virtual Canned Food Drive. The money raised from this event will go toward stocking and distributing food for food pantries, soup kitchens, Kids Cafes, senior centers, homeless shelters, youth programs, and BackPack Programs.
Feeding America works will food producers, distributors, and restaurants to gather excess food that otherwise would go to waste. This perfectly good food is then delivered to charities all over the United States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.
I learned all about this event from Jennifer at Savor The Thyme. She has an account all set up to collect donations if you’d like to support her campaign for the Virtual Canned Food Drive.
A $5 donation provides 35 meals for hungry families – and Libby’s Vegetables will match contributions, dollar for dollar, up to $30,000.
Together we CAN make a difference!
