Hy-Vee in partnership with Hormel Foods and local first responders, is getting ready to kick off its Fourth Annual Hams for the Holidays initiative.

The event includes stops in 14 cities where the retailer's employees, alongside local law enforcement, fire and EMS, will hand out 5,000 Hormel Cure 81 hams to families in need throughout the company’s eight-state region.

"There is no doubt that 2020 was one of the toughest years we have ever faced and so many are still struggling with food insecurity,” said Randy Edeker, chairman, CEO and president of Hy-Vee. “We are fortunate to have great partners who share Hy-Vee’s passion for giving back to the community. Since 2017, Hy-Vee’s Hams for the Holidays events have been an incredible way for us to help thousands of our neighbors in need. We look forward to continuing our efforts this spring to directly impact those in the areas we serve.”

Fourteen events are scheduled between March 24-31, prior to the Easter holiday. 

“Hormel Foods is proud to partner with Hy-Vee to support hunger-relief efforts in their communities,” said Kelsey Tynan, Hormel Cure 81 brand manager at Hormel Foods. “The Hy-Vee Hams for the Holidays promotion amplifies our Hormel Cure 81 Hams for Hunger program and highlights our long-standing relationship with Hy-Vee, and we are honored to work together and make such a substantial contribution for those in need.”
