As part of a commitment to alleviate food insecurity in its communities, Perdue Farms is announcing the donation of 400,000 pounds of no-antibiotics-ever chicken, the equivalent of 333,000 meals, to be shared with 10 Feeding America-affiliated food banks during Hunger Action Month this September. The Franklin P. and Arthur W. Perdue Foundation, the company’s charitable giving arm, also announced $60,000 in grants to support five local hunger relief programs in its communities.
The donations are part of the company’s Delivering Hope To Our Neighbors outreach focused on improving quality of life and building strong communities where Perdue associates live and work, and beyond.
