27 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT & COLLABORATION CONT. HEALTHIER HEARTS & COMMUNITIES PFG is continuing to invest in a community partnership with the American Heart Association, primarily focused in Richmond where we are headquartered. Teams of associates in Richmond are supporting this cause and the local Heart Walk through active participation and fund- raising. PFG took a leadership role for the event as the Nutrition Security Sponsor. This aligns with our commitment to fighting food insecurity and to supporting healthier communities. PFG’s sponsorship for a campaign to promote healthy donations to foodbanks supports the opportunity for those in need to have healthier options for feeding their families. RESPONDING TO DISASTERS When a disaster strikes, PFG partners with local chapters of the American Red Cross. We provide food and water donations, match our associates’ financial contributions, and leverage our nationwide network to provide logistics support and help deliver relief to communities in need. We are committed to providing comfort and sustenance to those most in need. This year, our disaster response included financial contributions to World Central Kitchen after communities in Texas were hard hit by severe storms. WCK’s mission to address hunger inspired us to provide financial support, as well as continue to offer our distribution expertise to assist the organization with delivery of food and other supplies quickly, when they are needed most.
