Over 1 million Uncrustables donated to Boys & Girls Clubs, including in Scottsville, Bowling Green

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – The J.M. Smucker Co. is helping to ensure children have access to over 1 million sandwiches.

According to The J.M. Smucker Co., thanks to a generous donation from the company, that number of sandwiches is heading to Boys & Girls Clubs across the country.

These include the Boys & Girls Clubs of Bowling Green and Scottsville, according to the release.

“The best part of our job is seeing the joy Uncrustables® frozen sandwiches bring fans, and the chance to put a smile on the faces of children all across the country is truly humbling,” said Chris Achenbach, marketing director at The J.M. Smucker Co. “We appreciate the opportunity to play a cool role in supporting the amazing work of local clubs to ensure kids and teens have access to meals and snacks.”

The donation is possible thanks to a partnership between Uncrustables® and local foodbanks, along with assistance from Feeding America Kentucky’s Heartland Foodbank.
