Focus On Food!
As school breaks begin, the summer months ahead bring heightened food insecurity for children and families that depend on school cafeteria meals most of the year. To support community members who must choose between food and other life necessities, local food banks need more donations to respond to increased demand during the summer season. Anticipating this challenge, the GSF Foundation (GSFF) initiated its “Focus on Food” program to help alleviate hunger in the communities where GSF associates work and live.
Associates across GSF’s food manufacturing and distribution businesses have a deep connection to fighting hunger. Since 2002, associates have donated millions of meals to vulnerable community members and volunteered their time shelving donations in food pantries, gleaning produce from fields, and distributing groceries to neighbors in need.
National Partnerships
Throughout the United States local GSF Foundation committees have the opportunity to make a grant to eligible 501(c)(3) food banks through an expedited process with matching national GSF Foundation donations up to $5,000 per local food bank grant.
