I think businesses–even small ones like ours–have a fundamental responsibility to help people who are struggling.
Not to get publicity or make a name for themselves, but because it’s the right thing to do.
That’s why for every Pure Food Protein Powder order, we donate five meals to hungry families in need through a great organization called Feeding America.
We Donate to Feeding America for 4 Reasons:
- Feeding America is a four-star rated charity that distributed more than 3 billion meals to more than 46 million hungry people in need last year.
- Almost 16 million kids under age 18 in the United States live in households where they’re unable to consistently access enough nutritious food necessary for a healthy life. As a husband and father of a young child, this makes me incredibly sad … but it also inspires me to step in and support an organization that helped feed 12 million of these hungry kids last year.
- Each year in America, roughly 70 billion pounds of good, safe food goes to waste—anywhere from 25 to 40 percent of all food grown! Feeding America and its partners diverted over 2 billion pounds of safe, edible food that might otherwise have gone to waste. Pretty cool.
- They help families in nearly every community in the U.S. and have been for years. Enough said.
I am grateful to have the support of so many awesome people who want to make a difference in the world and give back to an amazing organization like this.
