As part of the effort to fight hunger, the 2022 International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE) raised $34,932 for the Atlanta Community Food Bank through its ‘Giving Back to Atlanta’ campaign. The donation included $22,000 in contributions from IPPE, Hawkins Inc., Heron Innovators and WATT Global Media, with an additional $4,030 provided through contributions from Whimsical Glass and Expo Auctions and $8,902 by numerous individual donations.
“We are thankful for the continued support that IPPE and its attendees and exhibitors have given the Atlanta Community Food Bank. Contributions from these valued partners will help provide more than 125,000 meals to families in metro Atlanta and North Georgia, where one in four children face food insecurity each day,” said Ben Burgess, corporate relations manager, Atlanta Community Food Bank.
