Columbus Craft Meats, a division of Hormel Foods, has been a strong supporter of our FESCO/La Familia programs for many years. On November 20, Plant Manager Mark Oberst and the Columbus Meats team, met with our Sr Development Manager, Stephanie Miller for a tour of the plant. There, we were presented with a check to support our programs. Partnerships with local establishments like this are the core of lifting up our community together.

📢 Today, October 3rd, is Latina Equal Pay Day– a critical reminder that Latinas must work nearly 10 extra months to earn what their white, non-Hispanic male counterparts earned last year alone. 💼 The pay gap is real: Latinas are paid just 57 cents for every dollar earned by white men. This disparity isn’t just a statistic—it affects families, communities, and future opportunities for millions of women. 🗣️ It’s time for change! We must: • Advocate for equal pay in every workplace • Support policies that uplift Latinas and all women of color • Ensure fair and transparent compensation practices Let’s work together to close the gap and build a future where all women are valued and compensated fairly for their work. Thank you to our National Steering Committee who lead this incredible work! #LatinaProfessionals #LatinaEqualPay #EqualPayForAll #PayEquity #LatinaPower
