(*) Hy-Vee, a chain of supermarkets in the United States, has teamed up with feedingamerica.org in its cause. On October 1st, Hy-Vee launched its Scan Out Hunger campaign with a goal of collectively raising funds equal to 5 million meals (*) for families in need.
On Oct 24th, Donnie Wahlberg and Jenny McCarthy joined the cause in a new ad, part of a series of clips featuring celebrities such as Drew Barrymore, best friends Nina Dobrev and Julianne Hough, Gene Simmons and Mark Wahlberg.
$1 helps provide at least 10 meals secured by Feeding America on behalf of local member food banks.
On November 14, Mark Wahlberg’s ad was posted on YouTube.
Now through Dec. 31, 2021, Hy-Vee is encouraging its customers, suppliers, and community partners to make a donation to Feeding America® to help combat hunger. All money raised will benefit local Feeding America network food banks.
