JANUARY 2019 Town Pump Charitable Foundation FOOD BANK FUNDRAISER REACHES NEW RECORDS
THE TOWN PUMP CHARITABLE FOUNDATION COMMITTED A RECORD $750,000 IN MATCHING FUNDS FOR THE 2018 CAMPAIGN. 83 FOOD BANKS IN 71 MONTANA COMMUNITIES RECEIVED A RECORD-SETTING $3.7 MILLION TO HELP FEED OUR HUNGRY NEIGHBORS. In 2002, the annual “Be A Friend In Deed, Helping Those In Need” food bank fundraiser was started with two goals. First, to provide funds for food banks to help our hungry neighbors and second, to raise awareness of hunger in Montana.
Town Pump understands a food bank does not keep its doors open through food donations alone. This is why we have committed to bring much needed cash funds to assist with expenses such as building rent, utilities, purchasing bulk food items and perishable food including meat, produce, dairy and bread.
All the funds raised, including the matching funds, are used locally in the communities where the funds were collected. In 17 years, more than $29 million has been given to the food banks of Montana, including nearly $6 million in matching funds committed by Town Pump. THANK YOU Montana, for your generosity during Town Pump’s 2018 campaign! For a complete list of our food bank partners, please turn to the back page.
