Cargill Invests in Farm Safety Program for Kids

Fri, 02 Dec 2011 15:56:22 CST

Cargill recently made a generous contribution to Farm Safety 4 Just Kids . Cargill is an international producer and marketer of food, agricultural, financial, and industrial products and services. Founded in 1865, the privately held company employs 138,000 people in 67 countries.


"Cargill's generous donation supporting Farm Safety 4 Just Kids demonstrates their dedication to helping their customers succeed and ensures our organization will be able to continue keeping our rural youth safe," said Dave Schweitz, executive director of Farm Safety 4 Just Kids.


Farm Safety 4 Just Kids was created in 1987 by Marilyn Adams after the death of her 11-year-old son. The organization raises awareness about the health and safety hazards that are an inherent part of the rural environment in which children live, work, and play. Nine outreach coordinators and more than 120 chapters in the United States and Canada conduct safety and health programs within their communities.


Thanks to the support of agri-business sponsors like Cargill, Farm Safety 4 Just Kids is able to provide their volunteers with up to date and pertinent safety education and demonstration resources.
