Hy-Vee Expands Support for Local Food Pantries
New Initiatives to Combat Food Insecurity
Hy-Vee is bolstering its commitment to fighting food insecurity through several new initiatives designed to directly support local communities. Customers can now participate by rounding up their purchases at checkout, with the resulting funds being distributed weekly to food pantries in their area.
In addition to the round-up program, Hy-Vee has launched storewide food drives. These drives feature donation bundles priced at $5 and $10, containing essential pantry staples like canned vegetables, pasta sauce, and cereal. Donated items are delivered to local food pantries daily, ensuring a rapid response to community needs.
Notable Financial contribution to Feeding America
These efforts follow a recent $100,000 donation made by Hy-Vee to Feeding America, announced last week. This contribution aims to support 18 regional food banks across the country and expand their capacity to serve individuals and families facing hunger.
