Food banks are experiencing unprecedented demand. To help, we made this limited batch PB&J Food Bank Batch. And donating 100% of the profits from every 4-pack sold to Feeding America® food banks*.

Now, more than ever, we need to step in and provide nourishing food for more people. That’s why 100% of the profits from every 4-pack of our Food Bank Batch PB&J purchased will be donated to Feeding America®, a nationwide network of food banks*. Annually, More than 40 million people turn to their network of 200 food banks. And we are here to support in every way possible.

100% of the profits from every 4-pack of our Food Bank Batch PB&J will go directly to programs serving people in need, focusing on counties in the US with some of the highest rates of child hunger nationwide*. In addition, funds raised will be used to expand support and make resources more accessible in food deserts.

Learn how donations will be used by Feeding America’s grant recipients
Funds will go toward creating three school pantries in central and eastern Kentucky: remote, rural communities in Appalachia, that have high levels of poverty and child food insecurity. Pantries will purchase refrigeration equipment to ensure nutritious perishable goods are storable and accessible to children and families in dire need.
Funds will go toward their Summer Feeding program—put on pause due to the pandemic—providing 1,000 meals per week for eight weeks to children in need in Sharkey and Issaquena Counties. These are rural communities along the Mississippi River—where agricultural jobs are often the only ones available—are among the very poorest in America, and have some of the very highest rates of child food insecurity.
Funds will support their Mobile Food Pantry programs (in Todd, Mellette, and Oglala Lakota Counties) allowing them to engage in capacity building—acquiring coolers and other critical supplies—as well as purchasing healthy, nutritious food to families via Emergency Food Boxes. These communities are on or near reservations facing massive poverty, food insecurity, inadequate health care, and other compounding issues.
Funds will support their Child Hunger Initiative, including the expansion of the program to a new site, in Luna County—a county that sits at the US border with Mexico. Funds will allow monthly “pop-up distributions” at the local elementary school in Columbus, NM, to continue, and allow expansion to a new school in Deming, NM. The donated boxes of food to families at drive-thru distribution sites include shelf-stable products, frozen food, fresh produce, and protein items.
