ATCHISON, KAS. — MGP Ingredients and local non-profit agencies partnered to distribute 1,200 boxes of food to families in need Dec. 9 and 10 in Atchison through a program called “Boxes of Blessings.” Each box contained nearly 45 lbs of non-perishable items to feed a family of four for a week.
Dallas-based BCW, which distributes specialty wheat proteins and starches from MGP Ingredients, established “Boxes of Blessings” more than 20 years ago. Atchison-based MGP Ingredients participated for the third straight year.
