In this week’s Thought Leadership roundtable, Indiana Pacers Coach Rick Carlisle and Gleaners Food Bank CEO Fred Glass discuss Drive & Dish, a food insecurity initiative they launched in Indy that is expanding across the state.
Drive & Dish announced a new partnership with Kroger, MPS Egg Farms and HATCH for Hunger to deliver more than 100,000 eggs to Hoosiers in need. For every Pacers 3-pointer at home games, partners will donate eggs to help feed families across Indiana.
Community leaders and local organizations gathered in Lafayette for a Pacers Foundation roundtable focused on tackling food insecurity. The event is part of the statewide Drive & Dish initiative bringing partners together to turn ideas into action.
A $250,000 donation from the Pacers Foundation and the Herbert Simon Family Foundation will support the Central Indiana Food Relief Fund as Hoosier families face increased food insecurity. The contribution strengthens Drive & Dish efforts to ensure access to nutritious food statewide.
