CINCINNATI —

Cincinnati Bengals players and employees with Fifth Third Bank are teaming up to fight child hunger in the Cincinnati area.

On Monday, players and employees put together Bengals-themed Power Packs that will be distributed to 1,000 children across 20 schools each week in October. Advertisement

Each package contains over a dozen food items. They will go home with children through the Freestore Foodbank.

“Huddle for Hunger helps to ensure students have access to nourishing food and the support of a caring community,” said Bengals Director of Community Engagement Taylor Conklin. “We are grateful to partner with Fifth Third on this important initiative that supports Freestore Foodbank’s mission to improve lives by eliminating hunger.”
