Hormel Foods will donate $10,000 to the Hunger Task Force to fight hunger in New Berlin and surrounding communities…
Mexican Accent (New Berlin, Wis.), the local manufacturing facility owned by Hormel Foods Corporation (NYSE:HRL), announced today that it will donate $10,000 to the Hunger Task Force to fight hunger in New Berlin and surrounding communities. This donation is part of the Hormel Foods Plant Community Donations Program, which gives employees the opportunity to assist local hunger relief organizations and strengthen the communities where they live and work.
In 2012, the facility also donated $10,000 to the Hunger Task Force.
“I extend a heartfelt ‘thank you’ to the hardworking employees of Mexican Accent. Their commitment to quality – day in and day out – help make it possible for our company to continue the Plant Community Donations Program,” said Michael Maglio, general manager, Mexican Accent. “On behalf of our facility, I’m honored to present this donation to the Hunger Task Force.”
For the third consecutive year, Hormel Foods is giving funds to U.S. manufacturing facilities to share with nonprofits in their respective communities to fight hunger. In 2012, Hormel Foods donated $220,000 to local hunger relief organizations in more than 20 communities where it has U.S. manufacturing facilities.
“For the last two years, we’ve been able to assist our plant communities in local hunger relief efforts,” said Julie H. Craven, vice president of corporate communications at Hormel Foods. “We are committed to helping fight hunger in the areas where we live and work. It’s with great excitement that we continue the program throughout 2013.”
Hormel Foods is helping those in need both in the U.S. and internationally. Through its On Our Way to Ending Hunger program, the company collaborates with retailers, nonprofits and the government on hunger relief efforts; nourishes the hungry in the U.S. and abroad; and motivates individuals and corporate partners to take action to fight hunger.
