As part of the partnership, Happy Day Brands will donate approximately 250,000 nutritious breakfast servings (over 7,750 pounds) to New Yorkers in need. The effort will be activated through a series of "Do Good Packaging Day" events, where teams will come together to package and donate approximately 83,000 servings per event, delivering immediate support to families facing food insecurity across New York. The two companies share common philosophies. Happy Day Brands is a purpose-driven food company committed to nourishing people and communities throughout the country.
