CARLYLE - Precision Ag and Cargill have partnered to donate $11,500 to the Carlyle and District Food Bank.
“The purpose of Precision Ag and Cargill is to nourish the world in a safe, responsible and sustainable way,” said Precision Ag general manager Jody Magotiaux.
“We direct our partnerships to organizations such as the Carlyle and District Food Bank that are aligned with this purpose, in this case by addressing food security. Food security exists when all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to enough safe, nutritious, and affordable food.
“Food that meets their daily caloric and nutritional needs and provides the foundation for an active and healthy life. Precision Ag and Cargill work to advance food security and nutrition around the world every day through our businesses, as well as by supporting organizations such as the Food Bank here in Carlyle.
“We have been in the communities we serve for more than 25 years and are proud to support local programs such as this one.”
“Thank-you to Precision Ag and Cargill for your gracious donation. Funds are greatly appreciated as we have seen a steady rise in requests for help and a significant rise in food costs. In March of this year, we prepared and distributed 126 hampers, supporting over 300 clients in a 60-kilometre radius of Carlyle,” said food bank chairperson Theresa Luedtke.
