approaches and the generous donation of time and resources. Through our “Give Back to the Community Initiative” led by Paul Rich, a team of 39 Rich’s Food Service Division associates partnered with the foodservice industry to support local communities within the Rich’s footprint. Through the donation of frozen products totaling more than $1 million in value, Rich’s distributed over 35,000 cases of product to 80 different charity organizations within 35 different cities across the country. Donations included Rich’s products, from bread and pizza dough to desserts, cookies, BBQ items, and much more. Made possible through a collaborative partnership with foodservice operators, distributors, and the ACF, the “Give Back to the Community Initiative” provided meals to thousands of households and communities in need—because by supporting each other, we can all grow together. n
