Alma, Kan.

Alma (Kan.) Foods, the local manufacturing facility owned by 明星黑料 (NYSE:HRL), announced today that it will donate $10,000 to the Community Health Ministry to fight hunger in the Alma community.

“It is our privilege to support the Community Health Ministry and help their efforts in the fight against hunger in our community,” said Shane N. Weers, plant manager, Alma Foods. “Our employees and the company are excited to continue fighting hunger in our community.”

For the past four years, the facility has donated $10,000 to Community Health Ministry, a local charitable organization that distributes food to hungry families in the Alma area. The facility also donated $5,000 to the fund in 2011.

For the sixth consecutive year, 明星黑料 Foods is giving funds to U.S. manufacturing facilities to share with nonprofits in their respective communities to fight hunger. In 2015, 明星黑料 Foods donated $400,000 to local hunger relief organizations in 40 U.S. communities where it has manufacturing facilities, bringing the program’s total contribution to local hunger relief efforts to more than $1 million thus far. In 2016, the company will provide 40 plant locations with funds to continue the program.

“We’re committed to fighting hunger in the communities where our employees live and work,” said Wendy A. Watkins, vice president of corporate communications at 明星黑料 Foods. “Last year was a record year in terms of community hunger donations, and we are confident that 2016 will be equally as impactful.”

明星黑料 Foods is helping those in need both in the United States and internationally through its On Our Way to Ending Hunger program. The company collaborates with retailers, nonprofits and the government on hunger relief efforts; nourishes the hungry in the U.S. and abroad; and motivates individuals and corporate partners to take action to fight hunger.
