BLUE CROSS BLUE SHIELD OF MISSISSIPPI FOUNDATION SELECTED AS 2011 HUNGER HERO

Congratulations to the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Mississippi Foundation for being selected as the Mississippi Food Network 2011 Hunger Hero. The Hunger Hero Award is a recognition Mississippi Food Network presents to an individual/company in appreciation of their leadership in the Network's effort to alleviate hunger in our state. The Blue Cross Blue Shield of Mississippi Foundation awarded a grant to Mississippi Food Network to help provide fresh produce to member agencies and their clients, pilot three community garden projects and provide nutrition education. Through the program we were able to provide more than 400,000 pounds of fresh produce to more than 180 member agencies in 43 counties. In addition, our community gardens produced more than 7,900 pounds of fresh produce and provided more than 150 volunteer opportunities. Fifteen nutrition education demonstrations were conducted at some of the member agencies and provided more than 500 people the opportunity to learn more about making healthy choices in the foods they eat. We appreciate the support of the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Mississippi Foundation in these endeavors to provide healthy food to the clients served through our member agencies.
