"We applaud FPSA for their commitment to such a worthy cause and are happy to partner with them in this worthwhile effort," said GASC President Ralph Nappi. "With the participation of GRAPH EXPO 15 and CPP EXPO exhibitors and attendees, the goal of 300,000 meals should be well within reach."
The Graphic Arts Show Company (GASC) will make a donation to add to the campaign that launched earlier by the FPSA Foundation and will include donations from a wide variety of partners such as FPSA members, local food processors, PROCESS EXPO exhibitors, and the Greater Chicago Food Depository.
"We are proud to once again partner with the Greater Chicago Food Depository, which provides assistance to those in need through their member food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters," said David Seckman, President and CEO of FPSA.
