Operation Christmas Meal Kicks Off in Des Moines

What a beautiful morning it was in Des Moines kicking off the Deb and Jeff Hansen Foundation's 11th year of Operation Christmas Meal.

We anticipated a large turnout, and boy, cars showed up. We had the most wonderful group of 60 volunteers, our amazing employees, travel in on a work day to give back for the holiday season.

As pork producers and farmers, we believe in giving back and that everyone deserves and warm meal over the holidays. This early morning was so rewarding for us and we can't wait to do it 12 times over again!

Check out our Facebook events to see what other towns we are visiting the Christmas season or head over to our website iowaselect.com for a complete list of towns, locations and dates.
