As more families seek food assistance, Hy-Vee is stepping up with a $125,000 donation to help combat hunger.
The company announced it will give $100,000 to its Feeding America partner food banks to help maintain inventory and meet rising demand ahead of the holiday season. “Hy-Vee is committed to helping make sure no one goes hungry,” said Jeremy Gosch, Hy-Vee Chairman and CEO.
An additional $25,000 will support DoorDash’s initiative to waive delivery and service fees for customers using food assistance benefits, helping families stretch their budgets further.
The contribution adds to the more than $70 million in food and resources Hy-Vee has provided in the past year through donations, meal giveaways, and community programs. Feeding America has recognized Hy-Vee as a Visionary Partner—the organization’s highest honor for corporate support.
