44 million people in the U.S. face hunger, including one in five children. Everyone needs nutritious food to thrive, but many don't know where their next meal will come from – a situation made even more challenging by the continued impact of rising food prices.
Casey’s is joining the movement to end hunger once again by teaming up with Feeding America®, the largest hunger-relief organization in the United States. Our goal this year is to provide 10 million meals* to people facing hunger, supported by contributions from our guests and a generous donation of 250,000 meals from our partner Celsius®.
From February 28 to April 2, Casey’s guests can give to the campaign by rounding up at the register. For each $1 donated, 10 meals are distributed across 56 Feeding America food banks in the 17 states we call home.
Food availability is a challenge for many across the heartland. According to Feeding America, rural areas comprise less than two-thirds of all U.S. counties, but 9 out of 10 counties with the highest food insecurity rates are rural.
With a significant presence in midsize and rural communities, Casey’s is committed to making a positive impact through our #HereForGood mission. Since the start of our partnership with Feeding America in 2020, we have donated over 30 million meals thanks to our corporate partners and the generous contributions of our guests and team members.
To help us reach our 10 million meals* goal, you can:
To donate to the campaign, you can round up at the register the next time you visit your neighborhood Casey’s.
You also have the option to add a donation at checkout when ordering Casey’s handmade, delicious pizza or other Casey’s favorites online or in the app.
To help raise awareness of the campaign, Casey’s is partnering with three incredible college basketball stars from Casey’s Country.
"When I moved to Iowa my freshman year, it became clear why so many people love Casey’s. I’ve been a fan ever since, so partnering up with them while also giving back to this community was an opportunity I couldn’t pass up.”
“I’ve really enjoyed working with Casey’s this winter. From the elementary school donation for new basketball courts right here in Fayetteville to the Feeding America campaign on deck this March, it’s a brand that I’m grateful to be a part of. Plus, their pizza is delicious!”
“Growing up in North Carolina, I didn’t visit a Casey’s store until I started school in Tennessee. Now, it’s turned into one of my favorite stops here in Knoxville. I’m pumped to be part of their team this March, and I hope that together we can hit the 1 million meals donation.”
In March, for every slam dunk by the University of Tennessee’s Jonas Aidoo, every steal by the University of Arkansas’s Devo Davis, and every three-pointer by the University of Iowa’s Gabbie Marshall, Casey’s will donate up to 50,000 meals* to Feeding America, up to 1 million meals* total.
Your donation supports people in accessing the nutritious food needed to thrive. To learn more about our work to support our local communities, visit our website.
*$1 helps provide at least 10 meals secured by Feeding America on behalf of local partner food banks. Casey's guarantees a minimum donation of $100,000 through fundraising activities associated with the Here for Good campaign from February 28, 2024, through April 2, 2024.
