FOOD BANK OF

WYOMING

PARTNERSHIP

Known for its community outreach, Natural Grocers has partnered with

Food Bank of

Wyoming

since 2013 for its “Bring Your Own Bag” program. Each time a customer brings their own bag, Natural Grocers donates

five cents

per shopping trip to the Food Bank, which provides food and necessities to people in need across the state.

“Natural Grocers has been supporting Food Bank of

Wyoming

since 2013. As the statewide food bank, we serve all twenty-three counties through 160 hunger relief partners. It’s relationships like the one we have with Natural Grocers, plus being a part of the Feeding America network, which enables us to stretch every dollar donated into four meals. Every donation, whether big or small, truly ads up. When you shop at Natural Grocers and bring your own bag, you are joining the fight to end hunger,” said

Jill Stillwagon

, Director of Development for Food Bank of

Wyoming

September is also Hunger Action Month
