    Welch's Harvest of Help
    August 15, 2009 December, 2009
    Feeding America is thrilled to announce a partnership with Welch’s. As the Welch’s Concord and Niagara grape harvests get underway in vineyards across North America, Welch’s is partnering with Feeding America to share the bounty of its harvest with the millions of families nationwide who do not have access to adequate amounts of food to sustain a healthy life.

    Welch’s goal is to donate one million servings of 100% juice to Feeding America. As September is Hunger Action Month, the Welch’s family of grower-owners is calling on all families across the country to support the Harvest of Help.  Participants are asked to visit www.welchs.com/harvest  and click to donate (8) servings of Welch’s Grapefruit Juice, up to 1 million servings.

    Round-Up from The Heart Program
    The Pampered Chef's Round-Up from the Heart® program is a year-long campaign that benefits Feeding America.  The premier direct seller of high-quality kitchen tools, along with its nationwide sales field of 60,000 independent Consultants and guests, have donated more than $13 million to Feeding America to date.
  • The commitment to fight hunger in America is a team effort among The Pampered Chef's Consultants and guests.  Customers can contribute to the program in two ways:

    1. Rounding up Cooking Show purchase totals to the nearest dollar or more, with funds benefiting local food banks in the region where the donations originated.

    2. Purchasing a limited edition Round-Up from the Heart® Trivet — a decorative, brushed copper trivet that can protect counters and tabletops from hot food, be used as a decorative wall accent, or given as a thoughtful gift. For every trivet sold, The Pampered Chef® will contribute $2 to Feeding America.
