Building Strong Communities 

Rooted in food, opportunity and connection. 

Supporting the places we call home  

We invest in communities through charitable giving, food donations and volunteer efforts, helping expand access to food and strengthen local organizations.

Strong communities start with access to food, opportunity and connection. At General Mills, we use the power of food to help make that possible.  

We support communities where our people live and work through philanthropic giving, food donations and employee volunteerism, working alongside partners to help people access what they need and to create lasting impact.

How we invest in communities

We bring together our scale as a global food company with local insight from employees and community partners.

That means investing in programs and partnerships that expand access to food, strengthen local organizations and support the places where we live and work.

This work comes to life through:  

  • Funding nonprofit organizations with targeted grants
  • Donating food to support hunger relief efforts  
  • Mobilizing employees to volunteer and support local initiatives

No single effort changes a community. But together, they start to.
