Company Donates Protein to Four Partnering Tribal Nations in Honor of Native American Heritage Month

Tyson Foods continues its commitment to addressing hunger with protein donations to communities in need. More than 160,000 pounds of free protein was distributed to tribal nations near the company’s U.S.-based poultry facilities, providing nearly 640,000 meals* to local tribal citizens families and individuals experiencing food insecurity.

Volunteers from partnering tribes, including Quapaw Nation, Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians, and Cherokee Nation, joined Tyson Foods team members to help distribute 10-and-20 pounds boxes of free protein through drive-through donation events. Additionally, in response to the recent storms that impacted the Broken Bow and Idabel, Oklahoma, communities, the company donated more than 100,000 pounds of protein to support the community and Choctaw Nation tribal citizens.
