This month, our company has been dedicated to giving back in many meaningful ways. Our home office employees recently came together for an all-company volunteer day at the Mid-Ohio Food Collective, sorting and packing more than 1,700 pounds of donated product and serving nearly 600 families at the Mid-Ohio Market at Gantz Road in Columbus. In Cincinnati, our sales team lent a hand at the The Freestore Foodbank, ensuring families have access to nutritious meals. Team members also volunteered at the Northwest Arkansas Food Bank, supporting local families in need. Meanwhile, our Hillsdale team held a month-long drive to support Share the Warmth, their local homeless shelter, with necessities. And in Sulphur Springs, Texas, we organized a collection for our partners at CANHelp, embodying the spirit of community and generosity. Together, through these acts of service, we're making a difference and spreading positivity far and wide! #Volunteerism #CommunityService #DayofService #HeartsandHands #GivingBack #TeamWork #BobEvansFarms
