Kohl’s announced the renewal of its partnership with Hunger Task Force and a $750,000 commitment over the next year to ensure more Milwaukee-area children, families, and seniors have access to healthy, free food. Coming at a time of growing need, the donation extends Kohl’s hometown partnership with Hunger Task Force and will help sustain its network of more than 60 food pantries, soup kitchens, and homeless shelters. Funding will also help fill the gap in food access that many youths face during the summer through next year’s Summer Meals Program.
“Together with Hunger Task Force, we’re strengthening access to healthy food for families across Milwaukee at a critical time right now when so many need extra assistance during the holidays,” said Christie Raymond, Kohl’s chief marketing officer. “We’re proud of our longstanding partnership and are working to immediately minimize the gaps in nutritious food resources for our community. If you are looking to help neighbors in need this season, we encourage you to please join us in supporting Hunger Task Force.”
Kohl’s Cares has contributed more than $12 million to Hunger Task Force since 2009, fueling programs that have delivered more than 1.3 million suppers for youth through the Summer Meals Program and 3.5 million pounds of healthy food served across its network. Additionally, over the course of the partnership, Kohl’s associates have volunteered to sort more than 480,000 pounds of food for distribution and assembled more than 60,000 Stockboxes, which provide low-income seniors with boxes of healthy food.
“Hunger Task Force is grateful for Kohl’s continued, long-standing support of our mission to feed families in our community,” said Matt King, Hunger Task Force Chief Executive Officer. “Their strong financial support helps keep local pantries stocked and kids fed, and we’re thankful for Kohl’s exemplary leadership.”
Giving back to our communities has long been a cornerstone of Kohl’s philanthropic work. Throughout company history, Kohl’s Cares has given more than $160 million to Milwaukee-area nonprofits. Funding is made possible through Kohl’s Cares Goods For Good™, which donates 100 percent of the net profit to nonprofits supporting families nationwide.
