Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (NYSE: CLF) announced today that it
continues to address food insecurity as one of its key areas of
social responsibility. The Company held its third annual Souper
Bowl Food Drive across all of its operations earlier this year and
collected 240,000 pounds of non-perishable food items. In
conjunction with the food donations, Cleveland-Cliffs and The
Cleveland-Cliffs Foundation have also made cash contributions
totaling $500,000 to more than 48 food distribution organizations
in the local communities where the Company operates throughout the
United States and Canada. The $500,000 donated by Cleveland-Cliffs
and The Cleveland-Cliffs Foundation is estimated to provide more
than 5.2 million meals, which is based on guidance from hunger
relief organizations in the United States.
Cleveland-Cliffs’ Chairman, President and Chief Executive
Officer, Lourenco Goncalves, said, “We recognize that food
insecurity remains a common concern in communities across the
United States. As a leader in the North American steel industry and
a prominent employer in the regions where we operate, we believe
that Cleveland-Cliffs has an important role to play in addressing
this need. Cleveland-Cliffs has shown its commitment to address the
problem by donating more than $2.5 million over the past three
years to organizations working with individuals and families who
are food insecure. In addition to the efforts of the Company
itself, our employees have once again shown their generosity by
donating a remarkable 240,000 pounds of non-perishable food items
during our annual food drive.”
