Another big day for my Kroger friends -- this time in Monticello, Indiana.
We just completed a nearly $3 million renovation project at our local store, and as part of the ribbon-cutting celebration we presented a $25,000 check to Food Finders Food Bank, Inc. We're honored to assist the food bank's hunger relief service in that part of Indiana.

We’re so thankful for the generous donation from Kroger commemorated at the Monticello Kroger Remodel Celebration! 🎉 This gift combined with further support will enable us to purchase another Food Finders truck to serve our 16 counties. Thank you for your commitment to fighting hunger in our community! 💖
Today I had the opportunity to stop by Purdue Research Foundation's luncheon benefitting Food Finders Food Bank, Inc. and meet the staff and volunteer team. They had a great turnout with so many nonperishable food items donated toward the cause.

We're deeply grateful to the Arthur P. and Franklin W. Perdue Foundation (Perdue Farms) for their generous grant that will help us provide approximately 30,000 meals to neighbors facing food insecurity. Special thanks to Sara Norfolk, SHRM-SCP, whose sponsorship of our application made this possible. Together, we're making a real difference in the fight against food insecurity!
Food Finders is proud to have raised over $3,000 for our internal employee campaign for United Way of Greater Lafayette. We are thankful for our long partnership with such a wonderful local organization!
🧡 September is #HungerActionMonth, and the Feeding America network is calling on everyone to take one million actions against hunger! 🧡
Throughout the month, we'll share stories, newly available data, and ways to get involved in the movement to end hunger. Every action counts–whether you donate, advocate, volunteer, or spread the word online.
