2013 Annual Report | Solving Hunger Together 2013 ANNUAL REPORT SOLVING HUNGER TOGETHER Feeding America is the nation’s leading domestic hunger-relief organization. Our mission is to feed America’s hungry through a nationwide network of member food banks and engage our country in the fight to end hunger. Each year, the Feeding America network provides food to more than 37 million low-income people facing hunger in the United States, including 14 million children and nearly 3 million seniors. Our network of more than 200 food banks serves all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, by securing and distributing 3.2 billion meals annually. Feeding America member food banks support more than 61,000 local charitable agencies, which provide food directly to individuals and families in need. LEADERSHIP 2 MEETING THE NEED 4 BUILDING HUNGER-FREE COMMUNITIES 8 ENGAGING THE NATION 15 DONOR HONOR ROLL 21 FINANCIALS 41 NETWORK MEMBERS 48 SOLVING HUNGER TOGETHER 2013 ANNUAL REPORT | 1 A Word from Our Leaders Dear Friends, Together we are solving hunger. This year, Feeding America provided 3.2 billion meals to people in need and grew to become a $1.9 billion organization. We strengthened and scaled interventions that reach vulnerable populations like children and seniors, released groundbreaking research, provided relief in the wake of Superstorm Sandy, and secured partnerships and technologies that help us more efficiently and effectively rescue excess food to put on the plates of people facing hunger. We are fortunate to have a broad range of dedicated and supportive partners. Individuals, charities, businesses and government all play a critical role in getting more food to more people. Together, we are implementing real solutions to the significant challenge of hunger in our country. We still have our work cut out for us. Severe threats to nutrition programs loom in Congress and food insecurity holds steady at an unacceptably high rate. While our economy shows signs of recovery, the 49 million people struggling with hunger have not felt it. As Feeding America’s Map the Meal Gap research shows, hunger exists everywhere—in every county and every community across the United States. Long-term food security strengthens communities, improves our educational system, supports a healthy work- force and helps develop a more prosperous future for our nation. Through programs and services, the Feeding America network supports our clients’ efforts to climb out of poverty and into a future free from hunger. Your engagement and support help improve food security for all. Together, we can ensure that every man, woman and child has access to the food they need to lead an active, healthy life today while building a more food-secure future for themselves and their families. Thank you for supporting Feeding America’s mission.

  • Final CFFA Merchandiser Report Southeast Ken Meyer
    Season recap Final CFFA Merchandiser Report Southeast Ken Meyer Executive Summary This was my first season with CFFA and it was full of ups and downs. Weather problems, shipping problems, dock strikes; all made retailers on edge during the season. Some retailers reported to me that it was one of the worst years in recent memory. Many complained that they could not get to the price point that they needed to have to move good volumes of fruit. This resulted in a number of cancelled promotions. Kroger Memphis, Kroger Atlanta, Harris Teeter, Winn- Dixie/BI-LO, Merchants Distributing, Ingles, and Belle Foods all decided not to run promotions that they had previously committed to. The reasons given were inconsistent supplies and quality. On the other hand Hitchcock’s of Florida, Houchen’s of Kentucky, Piggly Wiggly of South Carolina, and the Defense Commissary Agency ran display contests…some of them for the first time ever. And results were very positive. Retail tags for our TV ads went out to Tampa and Jacksonville Florida, Nashville, Tennessee, and Charlotte, North Carolina. We separated timing of the commercials in Jacksonville and Tampa markets. Publix asked us for a separate commercial from the normal TV ad and so both Tampa and Jacksonville got one ad for Publix and Winn Dixie got the other ad. Harris Teeter got the tag line in Charlotte, with Food Lion turning it down. Thousands of points of sales materials were sent to retailers throughout the Southwest. Many of retailers commented that they had never seen this material before and really liked the colorful displays they could make from our POS.
