In addition to sharing banana-centric Thanksgiving recipes, Chiquita is giving back by spearheading donation efforts for Central Americans impacted by the recent Hurricane Eta, which destroyed local homes, hospitals, schools and roads. The company has been cultivating its yellow bananas in the tropics for more than 100 years, and is working closely with key relief organizations and governmental institutions to organize and execute relief efforts through essential supply and banana donations, funds and logistical transportation.

Chiquita is also getting into the giving spirit through its partnership with Feeding America. This year, Chiquita has donated eleven million bananas to the organization in response to the growing issue of food insecurity and will proudly continue its impactful partnership through Thanksgiving and the holidays, donating to the families the organization serves.

Chiquita bananas are a great source of essential vitamins and minerals, making them a go-to snack to support a well-rounded lifestyle. Plus, they’re an amazing addition to desserts for their natural sweetness and ability to keep baked goods moist.
