Tyson, LULAC Donate Meat To Second Harvest

Tyson Foods and the League of United Latin American Citizens are donating 15
tons of meat and other protein-rich food to Second Harvest Food Bank of Central
Florida.

The more than 30,000 pounds of meat donated Feb. 12 will be distributed to
partner agencies in six counties and are part of Tyson’s and LULAC’s three-year
commitment to fight hunger.

The new donation brings Tyson’s total in-kind donations since 2000 to more than
71 million pounds.

Donations of poultry and other high protein foods are especially valuable as
they allow us to provide our member agencies with more healthy, nutritious
options, said Dave Krepcho, president and CEO of Second Harvest Food Bank of
Central Florida. Every year, our agencies are seeing an increase in need. This
significant donation will help local agencies feed our many hungry neighbors.
