As part of a company commitment to hunger relief, Perdue Farms teamed with the Delmarva Shorebirds — the Class A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles — and three Delmarva food banks for the annual season-long 2016 Perdue Strike Out Hunger Challenge on Delmarva to deliver more than 154,000 meals across Delmarva communities.

“At Perdue, we believe that no one should go hungry. We’re delighted that the Strike Out Hunger Challenge continues to provide a large platform to raise awareness about the problem of hunger on Delmarva and provide much-needed relief to those in need,” said Kim Nechay, executive director of the Franklin P. and Arthur W. Perdue Foundation. “We’re proud of the collaboration we have with the Delmarva food banks, the Shorebirds and its fans, and the community at-large. The way in which everyone responded to the Strike Out Hunger Challenge again this year reflects the passion and commitment our community has for helping those in need.”
