In 2020, TCCA wanted to find a way to help U.S. farmers not only survive the COVID-19 pandemic but thrive into the future. On September 1, 2020, TCCA announced the first year of the "All ForFarmers" campaign partnership with American Farmland Trust (AFT), a not-for-profit organization working to save farms and ranches. TCCA pledged to contribute 10% of Tillamookbrand product sales during the month of September* to AFT with the first year of the campaign raising $1.6 million for AFT.
Working with TCCA, AFT created the Brighter Future Fund, a microgrant program founded to uplift, support and amplify farmers from all types of farming communities, especially those historically marginalized in the farming space. Of the first 130 farmers awarded, 96% are underserved or underrepresented farmers including female, non-binary, LGBTQ+, BIPOC and beginning farmers,74% are female, 70% are first-time farmers, and 60% identify as LGBTQ+ or BIPOC. After seeing the initial success of the program, TCCA continued their support of the Brighter Future Fund in 2021, underwriting all programmatic costs for two more years and encouraging other businesses and individuals to donate. Since its inception, TCCA and AFT have raised over $2.7 million, ultimately benefitting almost 300 farmers in almost every state across the country.
"Stewardship is at the heart of everything we do here at TCCA," said Kate Boltin, Vice President, Brand Marketing, TCCA. "Our commitment to both the future of farming and inclusion and diversity extends beyond our company operations, employees and farms. It's reflected in our All for Farmers program, and we're honored that our efforts to continue supporting America's farmers are recognized by the esteemed panel of judges for the Anthem Awards."
The Anthem Awards was launched in response to the prevalence social good has taken within the national conversation and cultural zeitgeist in recent years. The inaugural competition received nearly 2,500 entries from 36 countries worldwide. Anthem Winners are selected via independent evaluation by members of the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences. Entries are judged on their own merits based on a standard of excellence for each category as determined by the Academy as well as industry leaders from non-profits, foundations, and purpose-driven brands. Winners for the inaugural Anthem Awards will be celebrated at the first annualAnthem Voices conferencefollowed by a virtual Awards Show on Monday, February 28, 2022.
"It is our distinct honor to recognize the work that brands, organizations, and individuals are all making to create an impact in their community," said Jessica Lauretti, Managing Director, The Anthem Awards. "We launched this platform to show the world that all corners of our culture, from sports and entertainment to business leaders and celebrities, are all standing up to say, it is time for systemic change and that social good is what we value as a society."
