Yara Farm and Family Outreach

Yara North America will be making corporate donations totaling $100,000 to 4 different Food Bank initiatives across North America in response to the COVID-19 crisis under a program named Yara Farm and Family Outreach.

This is in addition to the contributions already initiated at Yara Belle Plaine. These programs help to assist growers by originating excess products directly from growers and distributing them through Food Bank systems to families and community groups in need, satisfying one of our goals to support our grower customers as well as those who need direct food assistance. The four organizations we are working with are Farmers Feeding Florida, Feeding the Carolinas, California Association of Food Banks and Food Banks Canada where we have reviewed their programs and we feel comfortable that the contributions will be used for the intended purpose.

Yara employees can also choose to participate individually in this program and we have set up an easy method within each of these organizations for Yara North America employees and friends to make contributions to the same initiative. If you are interested, just follow the instructions for each of the programs below.
