Food insecurity exists in every county in the United States. In 2021, 53 million Americans utilized food banks, the companies noted.

"With 34 million people in America not knowing where their next meal will come from, the need to help feed and fulfill continues," said Colleen Callahan, Ahold Delhaize team lead at Kellanova. "Kellanova Better Days Promise is committed to feeding people in need, and we're proud to partner with Giant Food to support those facing hunger in our communities."

Kellanova's donation is part of its Better Days Promise strategy, which aims to create better days for 4 billion people by the end of 2030.

"We believe in the power of community and are proud to support organizations in their effort to make a positive impact," said Mike Marchesani, Ahold Delhaize senior director of sales at WK Kellogg Co. "At the heart of our mission is a commitment to nourishing families and communities, and we are honored to partner with Food Giant as we collectively strive to make a difference in the lives of the people we serve."
