RIDGE SPRING, SC - Make way for the 11th annual Peaches with a Purpose campaign! Titan Farms has announced the launch of the campaign across all North Carolina Harris Teeter stores, donating a percentage of peach sales to the Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina in Charlotte, North Carolina. This year, Titan Farms will contribute directly by donating a truckload of fresh peaches totaling 37,800 pounds.
"At Titan Farms, we are honored to continue our support for the Peaches with a Purpose campaign alongside Harris Teeter,” Chalmers Carr, Chief Executive Officer and President, expressed. “Our donation of fresh peaches will provide nutritious meals to those in need throughout North Carolina, and we are particularly grateful to Salem Transportation for their generous contribution in transporting this donation to the food bank.”
The campaign was established to combat food insecurity and raise awareness about the importance of fresh produce, a press release stated. Over the last 11 years Titan Farms has donated over 380,000 pounds of peaches. This year's contribution will further aid the Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina in its mission to serve over 489,000 individuals, including children and seniors, across 24 counties in North and South Carolina.
Peaches with a Purpose will run until August 13, 2024, and customers can support the cause by purchasing peaches at their local Harris Teeter store.
"We believe in the power of partnerships to make a meaningful impact," said Lori Anne Carr, Vice President. "Through Peaches with a Purpose, we continue to address the critical need for fresh produce in local food banks and ensure that nutritious options are accessible to all.”
