Plum Organics Fights Child Hunger with Super Smoothies

One in six children in our community live at risk of hunger on any given day. When kids don’t have enough to eat, they often don’t receive the right nutrition they need to live full, healthy lives.

That’s why we were excited to receive a donation of 10,000 individual Super Smoothies from Plum Organics earlier this week. As part of a broader effort to help food insecure babies and tots across the country, Neil Grimmer, CEO of Plum Organics, was on site donating the essential nutrition pouches for use in the Second Harvest Heartland service area.

The Super Smoothies are a blend of organic fruits, vegetables and grains that were designed specifically to ease the nutrient deficiencies of food insecure kids ages 6 months to 36 months, but are nutritious and appealing for any age.

Plum Organics has made a commitment to donate at least 500,000 Super Smoothies in 2013 to hunger-relief organizations across the country. Thank you, Plum Organics, for your support of fighting child hunger in our community!
