Six-time Grammy Award-winning singer Amy Grant has partnered with Country Crock Omega Plus to focus on the “Small Changes” families can make in the lives of their families and American families in need.
From now to the end of the year, you and your readers can visit Your Family Table to share your small changes and Country Crock Omega Plus will donate a meal to a family through Feeding America (formerly America’s Second Harvest). It’s a free and easy way to help those in need this holiday season.
In addition, you can feed your own family with some of Amy Grant’s favorite holiday recipes using Country Crock, including Savory Cranberry Sauce (see recipe below).
Our nation’s food banks are receiving more requests than ever before, so even the smallest effort can mean a big deal to a family in need.
