Mann Packing Makes Holiday Donation to Boys & Girls Club of Monterey
SALINAS, CA – Premier provider of ready-to-use fresh veggies, Mann Packing, confirmed its commitment to community service, growing its profile locally while providing for families in need.
The company paired with the Boys & Girls Club of Monterey County (BGCMC) to support the Club’s Adopt-A-Family program.
“We are excited to support our county's youth during this holiday campaign,” said Gina Nucci, Director of Corporate Marketing at Mann’s and BGCMC board member. “Here at Mann’s, we’re always interested in opportunities to empower youth to thrive in school and lead healthy, productive lives. We’ve long been an advocate for youth development in Monterey County, and are proud of our partnership with the Club.”
The partnership will serve 1,100 youths and their families Thanksgiving meals at the Clubs’ five locations this week. In addition, 100 families will receive a special food box for the holiday school break.
“We value and depend on the support of corporate partners like Mann Packing,” said Michael L. Jackson, Ed.D., President & CEO of BGCMC. “Together we are making a positive difference in the lives of children, their families, and our community.”
This particular contribution adds to a series of charitable donations Mann’s has made this year. The company donated $10,000 during the BGCMC’s Great Futures Telethon recently, and makes an annual $15,000 pledge to the Club’s Health Lifestyles initiative.
Donations to the Adopt-A-Family program can be made on the BGCMC’s website.
