June was Turkey Lovers\u2019 Month and Cooper Farms, as you\u2019d expect, celebrated in a big way. They provided a turkey donation to those in need at the Paulding Senior Center and the Northwestern Ohio Community Action Commission for their Summer Food Service Program, established to ensure that children receive nutritious meals in the summer months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The donation of both deli meat and frozen turkey burgers totaled over 630 pounds of protein combined for the two organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTurkey Lovers\u2019 Month is like Christmas for us,\u201d said COO Gary Cooper. \u201cChristmas is a giving time, so we thought we\u2019d take this opportunity to share with those in need around us, as we like to do as frequently as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Protein is the most expensive part of the diet, typically, so in a time where many are still recovering financially from the impacts of COVID-19, this donation was more necessary than ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re always happy to give back, and we know times have been especially hard for many as of late,\u201d said Cooper. \u201cProviding a good, quality protein to those in need is the least we can do.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marsha Yeutter, Director of the Paulding County Senior Center, expressed her gratitude for not only this donation, but past donations from Cooper Farms as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe really appreciate Cooper Farms for this donation and all donations in the past,\u201d said Yeutter. \u201cWe\u2019ll use it for our senior meal program, some of it will be used for our summer food program. It all comes in really handy, financially.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To celebrate Turkey Lovers\u2019 Month, the company also celebrated with their team members by providing giveaways and a catered lunch at each location.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
