In many cases, families are forced to rely on the food bank to feed their children over the summer months. "Hormel Foods is proud to partner with Albertsons and Vons to support hunger-relief efforts in the communities served by Albertsons and Vons stores," said Aly Sill, brand manager at Hormel Foods. "The SKIPPY ® hunger program highlights our long-standing relationship with Albertsons and Vons, and we are honored to work together and make a contribution for those in need." "We are very excited to work with Hormel Foods and the SKIPPY ® brand to donate almost 25,000 jars of peanut butter to address the problem of child hunger over the summer months in the San Diego area," said Shane Dorcheus, President of Albertsons Companies' Southern California Division, which operates Albertsons, Vons, and Pavilions stores throughout the region.
