Inc. The funds will be used to help sponsor the Special Olympics State Games. This year the Cargill team was in charge of the softball throw. They organized heats, escorted athletes to and from the field, handed out the medals and, of course, gave out a lot of hugs. This contribution is sponsored by Cargill Eddyville and the Cargill Partnership Fund, a corporate program that matches contributions made by local Cargill facilities to support special projects and services in their community.
Most people know either a past or present Olympian, maybe a friend, neighbor or child.
This project holds a special meaning for Cargill employees and community members. The Special Olympics aim to positively contribute to the physical, social and psychological development of children and adults with mental handicaps. The Special Olympics are a nonprofit organization that runs solely on donations and volunteerism. The company provides distinctive customer solutions in supply chain management, food applications and health and nutrition.
