FFEN - Foundation for Essential Needs

Thank you to our partners at Sovran, Inc. for sponsoring this year's Reshaping Hunger Relief Breakfast.

Thank you to Land O'Lakes, Inc. for support of this year's Reshaping Hunger Relief Breakfast. Land O'Lakes, Inc. said by investing in FFEN they are able to impact hundreds of food shelves across the state. The impact of FFEN’s work includes large, community center-based food shelves as well as those in small towns run solely by volunteers.

“Rural communities are especially important to Land O’Lakes, a farmer-owned cooperative,” said Amy Podlesak, senior community impact manager with Land O'Lakes Inc. “FFEN’s work is especially important to rural food shelf leaders, who might feel more isolated.”

“We want to be sure those food shelves feel supported. We want them to have an organization to go to for questions and have a network they can tap into so they don’t feel alone in facing the challenges they might have.”
