The dairy cooperative is focusing locally first to maximize impact.
The Tillamook County Creamery Association (TCCA), Tillamook, Ore., said its farmer-owners have committed $4 million to a comprehensive COVID-19 relief plan to help its employees, the communities in which the company operates, and industry partners respond to and recover from burdens created by the COVID-19 pandemic.
"Extraordinary challenges require extraordinary responses, and it's a time for businesses — including ours — to step up in a big way," said Patrick Criteser, TCCA's president and CEO. "We are inspired by the critical role we play in keeping food on America's tables and are fortunate that our company is strong right now so we can help others."
