1 in 5 Heartland children is facing hunger. Woodhouse Auto Family has stepped up to help with a $500,000 match for our BackPack Program, which provides weekend meals for 8,700 children each week during the school year.
Last year, Hy-Vee and Feeding America announced an ambitious challenge—to raise the funds and donations equivalent to 100 million meals. So far, Hy-Vee has raised 62 million meals across their region. Your help is still needed! 100% of the money you donate to your local Hy-Vee stores directly benefits Food Bank for the Heartland. Please be sure to share the challenge with your friends and family. The need has never been greater in our community—join the challenge today!
