Jason Baskin knows a thing or two about quick, tasty and easy meals. Baskin is the senior brand manager for Hormel® Compleats® microwave meals and has spent the last four years making sure the brand delivers a satisfying and convenient meal in 60 seconds.
What he and his team found, however, is that there is another population that sees the Hormel® Compleats® products as much more.
“We kept hearing about how these products were helping older adults stay independent and remain in their homes. We’d receive incredibly moving stories from this population and their kids and grandkids about how Hormel® Compleats® products were one of the few ‘real meals’ they could prepare for themselves.”
So for Baskin and his team, partnering with Meals on Wheels America became a way to make a difference.

These families look to you and The Inn to keep childhood alive for their daughter or son who endure grueling medical schedules and uncertain futures.
Life is an incredible journey. Every day is a beautiful gift and an opportunity to make a positive difference.

As I grew up, her work ethic helped to create and influence my own. She showed me that anything is possible, even in the midst of adversity. During the most difficult times, you can and will survive.
