Old Home Foods "Put A Lid on MN Hunger™" Program
March 1, 2009 - December 31, 2009

The company will guarantee a minimum donation of $10,000, but it could rise to $25,000 if enough lids are sent in. Proceeds help Minnesota food shelves purchase food and keep up with the growing number of struggling families in Minnesota. For more information visit Old Home's website.
