The Central California Food Bank announced Monday the start of its sixth annual Triple Match fundraiser, partnering once again with Bank of America to triple up to $30,000 in community donations to help fight hunger across the Central Valley.<\/p>\n
The two-day campaign runs Thursday through Friday. It also marks the nonprofit\u2019s 34th anniversary. The food bank, which began operating from a temporary facility at the Fresno Fairgrounds, now serves more than 320,000 people each month across Fresno, Madera, Tulare, Kings and Kern counties through a network of more than 260 partner agencies.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis birthday, we\u2019re asking our community to help us make 3x the difference,\u201d said Kym Dildine, co-CEO of the Central California Food Bank. \u201cWith Bank of America\u2019s Triple Match, every dollar donated will go 3x as far to provide nutritious food for families, children, seniors, and veterans across Central California. Join us, give today.\u201d<\/p>\n
Funds raised during the campaign will support the organization\u2019s Groceries2Go program, an appointment-based grocery pickup service launched during the pandemic that provides fresh produce, dairy, eggs, protein, pantry staples and other nutritious foods.<\/p>\n
Bank of America has participated in the fundraiser since it began. The bank also supports other local nonprofits, including Boys & Girls Clubs of Fresno County, Marjaree Mason Center and Poverello House through its charitable giving efforts.<\/p>\n
\u201cHelping meet people\u2019s basic needs is fundamental to building stronger communities and expanding economic opportunity,\u201d said Mark Riley, Bank of America Fresno and Visalia president. \u201cTogether, we can help more children, families, seniors, and veterans access the nutritious food they need while supporting healthier, more resilient communities across Central California.\u201d<\/p>\n
