The company’s annual match campaign will help
provide 5 million meals* to families and individuals experiencing
hunger
For the 13th consecutive year, Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (NYSE:
AMP) will match donations to Feeding America® (up to $250,000) to
help the more than 47 million people, including 14 million
children, in the U.S. who lack consistent access to food. With the
Ameriprise match, each dollar donated through October 31 will help
provide 20 meals* (double the standard donation) to families and
individuals experiencing food insecurity. Participation is easy
and open to the public: visit
www.feedingamerica.org/ameriprise to give online.
“Despite inflation coming down across several sectors of the
economy, the cost of daily essentials like groceries, rent and
energy bills are still high, putting pressure on individuals and
families,” said Jennifer Jones, Vice President of Community
Relations at Ameriprise Financial. “At Ameriprise, we have a
longstanding commitment to help people meet their basic needs like
food, shelter, and adult self-sufficiency, which fits squarely with
Feeding America’s vision: An America without hunger. We invite all
those who are in a position to give to join our effort to fight
hunger.”
Since establishing a partnership with Feeding America in 2009,
Ameriprise advisors, employees and clients have helped provide more
than 124 million meals and volunteered 400,000 hours to support
Feeding America and other hunger-relief organizations nationwide.
The Ameriprise matching campaign was established in 2010 to
encourage additional donations to Feeding America. In total, the
campaign has helped provide approximately 236 million meals to
people facing hunger across the U.S.
In addition to the matching campaign, Ameriprise is partnering
with Feeding America for its 15th annual National Day of Service,
which will be on November 14, 2024. This nationwide volunteer
effort will bring together thousands of Ameriprise employees,
advisors, and clients ahead of the holiday season to help people
facing food insecurities.
“Hunger is much closer than you might think. Anyone can
experience food insecurity, regardless of background, race, or ZIP
code,” said Lauren Biedron, Senior Vice President of Corporate
Partnerships at Feeding America. “The longstanding commitment of
our partners, like Ameriprise Financial, to hunger relief has been
instrumental in supporting our mission of fostering a future where
everyone has access to the food they need to thrive.”
