PAYETTE BREWING KEGS 4 KAUSE
We’re committed to taking care of those who’ve taken care of us, and to shining a light on people doing amazing things. That’s why we launched the Payette Forward Program in 2011, which included our local giveback initiative, Kegs 4 Kause. What started as a way for us to give back, stay involved, and make a local impact has grown to be a pillar in our brewery and our community.
Join us every Monday from 6:00 - 10:00 pm, as we donate 50% of our profits from draft beer sales in the Tap Room to a selected Idaho non-profit.
ABOUT:
St. Mary's Food Bank provides emergency food assistance to our clients on a once a month basis. A typical family of four receives a 7 to 10 day supply of food. Each of these families are given a "personalized food pack" that addresses their particular needs.
St. Mary's Food Bank implemented a special custom-made program developed for us by Idaho State University. Using the federal "My Plate" guide as the standard for "nutritionally-balanced" meals, the team developed an easy-to-use point scheme to confirm that each of the five required nutritional categories (Grain, Dairy, Protein, Fruits and Vegetables) are represented in the box. SMFB strives to offer foods to provide 25% of a person's needs for a month based on the "My Plate" food guide that meet the Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) guidelines.
