Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee is leading the community in the fight to end hunger, so it was no surprise that our Maryville, TN employees selected the organization to receive their second Local Impact Grant in 2023. The Newell Brands Charitable Foundation grant supported the Food for Kids (FFK) program, which serves nearly 14,000 students at 292 public schools in their 18-county service area. Through FFK, the organization discreetly provides bags of food on Fridays to children who have an unstable food source at home over the weekends. Teachers have witnessed a positive change in the students who participate in FFK. One teacher said, “A second grader jumped two levels in reading after starting the program. She could sit and concentrate on sounding out words. Her parents and I think this program profoundly influenced this achievement. It’s like you could see her switch from survival mode to thriving.” In addition to the monetary support in 2020 and 2023, our employees have volunteered to pack bags, participate in food drives and sort donations for the FFK program. The Newell Brands Charitable Foundation is proud to support Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee and its work to remove the barrier to nutritious food so children can focus on what is most important—learning.
