CVA's pledge makes a difference in the Heartland

Through Central Valley Ag’s partnership with the K-State Wildcats, Nebraska Huskers and Iowa State Cyclones, CVA is sponsoring a 3-pointer initiative throughout the men’s and women’s 2023-2024 basketball season for each university. Every Wildcat, Husker and Cyclone basket made beyond the arc, CVA pledges a donation to the Kansas Food Bank and the Food Bank for the Heartland. 

The pledge is part of the cooperative’s campaign “Our Planet is Hungry,” an initiative launched to promote the unique value of the cooperative’s four divisions – grain, agronomy, energy and feed – as CVA works alongside farmers to feed a hungry globe. And as CVA is a farmer-owned cooperative, there is room at the table.

With this added level of fun per game, CVA is thrilled to give back to statewide food banks so that they can continue their work in eliminating hunger in the Midwest by ensuring consistent access to healthy foods through community partnerships.

Our planet is hungry. Together, we feed it.

As the official co-op of K-State Athletics, Central Valley Ag is proud to do their part in making food available to those in need by pledging a donation to Kansas Food Bank for every Wildcat basket made beyond the arc throughout the men's and women's basketball season this year.
