An estimated 44 million people are faced with hunger every year in the United States, including more than 13 million children. Hunger knows no boundaries and it touches every community in the United States.
In 2023, the Call Foundation provided a grant in support of FJ Management's subsidiary Maverik and its "Round Up Your Change" cash register donation program, which ultimately helped raise over $572,000 for Feeding America, providing more than four million meals to individuals and families facing food insecurity. The donation was distributed to 16 Feeding America member food banks across 12 western states where Maverik operates. Maverik’s food waste reduction program also donated over 1.4 million pounds of food in 2023, which is equivalent to 1.2 million meals.* The food waste reduction program is active in more than 455 Maverik stores across 14 states. Since 2020, this partnership has helped provide over 16 million meals* to Feeding America in its fight against hunger.
*MealClaim - $1 helps to provide at least ten meals secured by Feeding America® on behalf of local member food banks.
