40,000 Pounds of Pork Products Donated to FBEO by the Oklahoma Pork Council!

The Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma wants to thank Seaboard Foods for generously donating 3,000 cases of pork products totaling 40,000 pounds of meat that will go directly to families in need. This donation was made possible by the Oklahoma Pork Council “Give-A-Ham” campaign which gathered enough pork products to make this amazing contribution to our cause.

To celebrate this impactful donation, the Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma hosted the Oklahoma Table Summit – an event that gathered our partner agencies, civic leaders, local food manufacturers, farmers, and other community members who play a vital role in strengthening Oklahoma’s food system. Members of the Future Farmers of America (FFA) local chapters also attended the event to learn more about how future generations can work together and find solutions to hunger needs in our community.
