Each member of Iowa’s military units will be receiving a special gift from Iowa Select Farms and the Deb and Jeff Hansen Foundation. More than 12,000 Armed Services members and their families will receive $38 worth of coupons good for various pork products, including: fresh pork; ham; ribs; bacon; and ground pork through their unit’s Family Readiness Coordinators. “Providing support to military families is the least we can do for those on active duty and those who dedicate their time to serving our country,” said Jeff Hansen, President and CEO of Iowa Select Farms and co-founder of the Deb and Jeff Hansen Foundation. Employees of Iowa Select Farms delivered the $456,000 worth of free Pork Care Packages to all units of the Iowa National Guard, along with the 132nd Fighter Wing, Iowa Air National Guard—185th Air Refueling Wing and the U.S. Army, Navy and Marine Corps Reserves. They were also delivered to the Iowa National Guard’s Survivor Outreach Services to be presented to 600 Iowa families of fallen soldiers. The coupons are redeemable at any local grocery store.
