GRAND RAPIDS, Michigan, 20 de septiembre de 2023 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- Meijer ha anunciado una donación de $25,000 a Kids' Food Basket en Grand Rapids en nombre de Leona Maguire, campeona del Meijer LPGA Classic, para Simply Give, marcando el tercer año consecutivo en que los campeones del torneo seleccionan a la organización para la sorpresa.

Esta donación se produce tras otra importante recaudación de fondos en la historia del torneo y apoya una tradición iniciada en 2021 para apoyar un programa de ayuda contra el hambre a elección del campeón. Tanto la campeona de 2022, Jennifer Kupcho, como la campeona de 2021 Nelly Korda optaron por entregar la donación sorpresa de $25,000 a Kids' Food Basket.

"Es realmente extraordinario presenciar que tres campeonas consecutivas del Meijer LPGA Classic elijan invertir en nuestra comunidad de Grand Rapids", dijo Rick Keyes, presidente y director ejecutivo de Meijer. "Mientras mantenemos nuestro compromiso de enriquecer las vidas de las comunidades a las que servimos, es gratificante ver cómo Kids' Food Basket sigue resonando profundamente en nuestra comunidad y dejando una huella duradera en los corazones de los jugadores."

Maguire eligió apoyar a Kids' Food Basket porque sus padres son educadores, por lo que apoyar a los niños a lo largo de su viaje educativo siempre le ha llegado profundamente. 

"Estoy encantada junto a Meijer de hacer una donación para el increíble trabajo que está llevando a cabo Kids' Food Basket ", declaró Leona. "Proporcionar alimentos sanos y nutritivos a los niños es absolutamente vital y sé que estos fondos serán bien recibidos y tendrán un gran uso para los niños de la comunidad local".

Durante más de 20 años, Kids' Food Basket ha derribado las barreras que impiden el acceso de los niños y las familias a una alimentación sana. Desde su programa insignia 'Sack Supper' hasta la agricultura impulsada por la comunidad, la provisión de alimentos para familias y la programación educativa, Kids' Food Basket trabaja para lograr un oeste de Michigan sin hambre para todos. Meijer ha sido socio comunitario de Kids' Food Basket durante muchos años y sigue invirtiendo alimentos y fondos en la misión de la organización durante todo el año.

"En Kids' Food Basket creemos que la comida sana debe ser accesible a todas las familias, algo por lo que Meijer LPGA Classic también se esfuerza año tras año para Simply Give", afirmó Bridget Clark Whitney, presidente y director general fundador de Kids' Food Basket. "No podríamos estar más agradecidos por todo lo que Meijer hace por las comunidades a las que sirve y por la meditada elección de donación de Leona mientras todos seguimos persiguiendo un oeste de Michigan sin hambre".

Además de la donación de $1.25 millones del torneo a Simply Give y de $25,000 adicionales a Kids' Food Basket, el Meijer LPGA Classic 2023 también estableció récords de asistencia con más de 70,000 espectadores y 1,300 voluntarios durante toda la semana

Con una asistencia un 25 por ciento mayor que el año pasado, el Meijer LPGA Classic sigue teniendo un impacto cada vez mayor año tras año, en correlación con el abastecimiento de las estanterías de las despensas de alimentos en todo el Medio Oeste", dijo Cathy Cooper, directora ejecutiva del Meijer LPGA Classic. "Estamos agradecidos con nuestras comunidades, proveedores y socios sin fines de lucro que viven de acuerdo con nuestra misión y esperamos que el año que viene el torneo sea otro éxito".
