Vegetable nutrition is critical to good health; yet, 70 percent of American adults fall short of the daily recommendation. This is especially true for the more than 35 million Americans who are food insecure, hungry or at risk of hunger.
V8 believes strongly in the power of vegetables and the importance of getting them to those in need. As a result, V8 has teamed up with Feeding America (formerly known as America's Second Harvest—The Nations Food Bank Network) to donate more than 30 million servings of fresh vegetables to local food banks throughout the country over the next six months.
You can be a part simply by getting more vegetables yourself! Your purchase of V8 juices and new V8 Soups from September 2008 through February 2009 helps support our donation of $1MM to Feeding America's National Produce Program. Our donation will provide over 30 million servings of fresh vegetables to local food banks across America.
But there's more! You can also help us exceed our goal by making your own donation to Feeding America and by "tagging our national bag." This fun, interactive activity allows you to create a personalized "tag," place it in the produce bag on our Web site and send it to friends and family to show your support for the V8® Make Every Serving Count™ initiative and raise awareness of the more than 35 million Americans that are food insecure, hungry or at risk of hunger.
