Team Farm Bureau Donates to the Arkansas Foodbank

Recently, Team Farm Bureau came together for a community outreach project aimed at helping the Arkansas Foodbank with a need for canned goods in the aftermath of recent flooding that has impacted much of the state.

The Team Farm Bureau Community Outreach program donated 1,176 canned food items to the Arkansas Foodbank. The food donated came from a combination of employee donated items and a company match on those donations. Always a champion of the company’s community outreach efforts, VP of Human Resources Tammy Crumley had this to say, “The Foodbank requested help, so Team Farm Bureau jumped right in and made it happen!”

The Arkansas Foodbank started in 1984 as an organization serving a number of south Arkansas counties as a source of food for local agencies who sought to reduce hunger in their communities. Since then the Foodbank has grown to serve 450+ partner agencies and more than 280,000 people. Farm Bureau Insurance in Arkansas and its employees are proud to be able to help those individuals in our state who benefit from the essential work of the Arkansas Foodbank.
