Casey’s, a prominent convenience store chain, has launched its annual campaign to combat food insecurity in partnership with Feeding America ®. Now until April 1, 2025, Casey’s will raise funds through registered roundups and online donations to support the movement to end hunger.
In 2023, over 47 million people in the U.S. faced food insecurity, including nearly 14 million children. Food banks play a crucial role in providing meals during economic hardships or personal crises. Throughout the year, the Feeding America ® network distributed more than 5 billion meals nationwide, with support from partners like Casey’s and Celsius.
This year’s campaign aims to provide 10 million meals directly to individuals facing hunger. Ena Williams, Chief Operating Officer at Casey’s, emphasized the company’s commitment and the importance of supporting rural areas that may lack access to necessary food and resources. “In partnership with Feeding America ® and Celsius, and with the generosity of our guests, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those in Casey’s Country.”
Guests can participate in this initiative by rounding up their in-store purchases or adding donations to online orders. Additionally, Celsius is supporting the campaign with a donation that will help provide 250,000 meals.
