Food donations in “Pantry Pallet” quantities, distributed by Golden West Food Group will include an assortment of ready-to-cook beef, pork, chicken with various side dishes as well.

A diverse line of meats from some of America’s favorite food brands is manufactured by Golden West Food Group, including Jack Daniel’s BBQ Meats, Meat District butcher-crafted premium burgers, Moe’s Southwest Grill entrees, American BBQ Company meats, Red Moon Asian fusion meals, Calle Sabor Latin fusion foods and many others.

“As a leader in food manufacturing, we are proud to do what we can to help hospitals and first responders and it is our hope that other food companies and suppliers do what they can to expand meal distribution across the region and around the country,” said Litmanovich.
