That is why the Feeding America® network is proud to partner with Casey's to help provide more meals to communities in need across the heartland. The Casey's #HereforGood Hunger campaign helped provide more than 15 million meals* to children and families who may not know where they will find their next meal.
As part of Casey's campaign, consumers were invited to round up their purchase at the register. In addition, when consumers purchased a Coca-Cola four-pack, $1 was donated to Feeding America. Casey's campaign raised more than $1.5 million for 47 local food banks across its 16-state footprint, including Food Bank of Iowa.
"At Food Bank of Iowa, we are grateful for the support that Casey's has provided," said Michelle Book, president and CEO at Food Bank of Iowa. "In this time of need, we want every household to have food on their table and that is why Feeding America's partnership with Casey's is critical to help us reach more Iowans."
The Feeding America network of food banks is responding every day to help children and families in need. In 2020, the network distributed more than 6 billion meals to communities across the country.
*$1 helps to provide at least ten meals secured by Feeding America® on behalf of local member food banks.
