A Time For Giving
Thanksgiving is a time of coming together with family and giving thanks for what we have. With the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, sometimes we can forget that there are so many people who are less fortunate than we are. We would like to encourage everyone to remember to give back this holiday season by donating to food banks. While any donation is always a gift, instead of giving items directly from your pantry, why not head to the store with our list of shelf stable items below and pick out what you feel would be most beneficial to someone in need. Canned foods are not only convenient, but also packed full of nutrition. When you sit down to your Thanksgiving meal this year, you will feel an extra sense of warmth knowing you've made someone's dinner table just as amazing as yours.
HERE is a list of shelf stable items you can stock your own pantry with, as well as donate to those in need.
Please visit Feeding America to find a local food bank near you. CFA member, Del Monte, has also teamed up with Kellogg's, Hormel and Amazon to make it even easier to give back through November 15th. You just simply select a food bank and purchase from a list of products. Feeding America will do the rest! Give back HERE.
Wishing you all a wonderful Thanksgiving!
