May 21, 2026, Land O’Lakes, Inc. donated nearly 40,000 pounds of LAND O LAKES® Macaroni & Cheese to Feed My People Food Bank through the Land O’Lakes First Run Program.
The First Run Program has donated over 7.6 million pounds of product since it was established in 2010. The program is committed to donating truckloads of fresh product year-round, made specifically for food banks to help alleviate hunger across the United States.
“Land O’Lakes is a food and agriculture co-op owned by farmers; we believe deeply in the communities
that grow and produce our food, and the vital role they play in our country,” said Kevin Schluender, SVP
and General Counsel of Land O’Lakes, Inc. “While they bear responsibility for providing food security for
families across the globe, these rural communities can sometimes face higher rates of food insecurity
than urban ones, and we’re committed to helping close that gap.”
“Feed My People relies on strong regional partners to help us serve food insecure households
throughout West Central Wisconsin,” said Padraig Gallagher, Executive Director of Feed My People. “We
are grateful to Land O’ Lakes for the generous support of our communities and for the impact that we
know this food will have.”
