"It's a credit to all of the new ConAgra Foods Foundation fans that we're able to build a community that can work together to end child hunger in this country," said Chris Kircher, president, ConAgra Foods Foundation. "We're grateful for the fans' support to help reach our goal of contributing $100,000 to Feeding America and look forward to achieving even more."
The ConAgra Foods Foundation established its Facebook fan page on Sept. 30 after it announced a $10 million commitment to Feeding America at the "Rock a Little, Feed a Lot" concert. The $10 million grant is the largest donation ever made to fight child hunger with Feeding America.
Both the grant and the additional donation of $100,000 will help Feeding America meet the needs of the more than 12 million children in America - 1 in 6 - who are at risk of hunger across the country. Since 1993, ConAgra Foods and its brands have contributed nearly $35 million dollars and more than 230 million pounds of food to support Feeding America programs.
