Express and BUSH's Beans Teaming up against Hunger

Round Rock Express News Release
ROUND ROCK, Texas and KNOXVILLE, Tennessee - The Round Rock Express and BUSH's© Beans are working together with the Round Rock Area Serving Center to "Team Up Against Hunger."
In its second year, this program encourages fans to bring non-perishable food donations to Dell Diamond and, in turn, fans will receive a free lawn ticket to the team's game against the Tacoma Rainiers on Wednesday, July 25 for helping to feed the local community though the Round Rock Serving Center.
Ninety Minor League Baseball™ (MiLB) clubs across the country will "Team Up Against Hunger" throughout the month of July. The month is significant as it marks the middle of summer break and a crucial time when millions of children are not receiving free or reduced-price meals at their schools as they do when school is in session.
"We are honored to partner with BUSH's Beans and the Round Rock Area Serving Center to bring the issue of hunger to light using our MiLB platform," Round Rock Express General Manager Tim Jackson said. "This is one great way to bring the community together to show that we are unified in the fight against hunger in Central Texas."
"As a family-owned food company, it is important to everyone at BUSH'S to help hungry families," said Mike Morris, consumer experience manager at Bush Brothers & Co. "Working with Minor League Baseball and communities nationwide helps bring attention and action to a very important topic - beating hunger."
