ADM has donated USD 350,000 to Feeding America, the largest food bank organization in the U.S., to help provide meals for individuals as well as families in need across the country. This donation will support food distribution efforts in six states.
Feeding America, a longtime partner of ADM Cares, serves every county in the U.S. through its network of over 200 food banks, pantries, as well as meal programs, reaching more than 46 million people. The organization operates to end hunger through food access, food rescue, and disaster response, as well as research.
ADM’s donation is part of ADM Cares, the company’s social investment program that helps strengthen communities where ADM employees live and work by supporting initiatives that promote social, economic, and environmental progress.
As part of its ongoing commitment to fighting hunger, ADM plans to continue its support for Feeding America as well as other local initiatives that provide important resources for vulnerable communities. The company believes in creating lasting, positive change by contributing to solutions that address food insecurity at both local and national levels.
