Kyrie Irving has partnered with Lineage Logistics , the world’s largest and most innovative provider of temperature-controlled logistics, and Feeding America® , the nation’s largest hunger-relief organization, to raise awareness for its Share A Meal campaign, which aims to help provide 100 million meals* in response to COVID-19. The campaign goal is to help ensure no family or child goes hungry during this global pandemic.
Kyrie is personally contributing $323,000, and is asking his family, friends, fans and partners to join him in donating in support of Feeding America’s COVID-19 Response Fund. Lineage Logistics will match all donations up to $200,000 to City Harvest, New York City’s private response to hunger and largest food rescue organization, and in addition, Kyrie and Lineage are donating over 250,000 meals** to City Harvest to immediately help those affected by COVID-19.
“Seeing the effects of COVID-19 reach our families, our schools, our jobs, and access to food has really impacted me,” said Kyrie. “I am excited to partner with Feeding America and Lineage Logistics to launch the Share A Meal campaign to help marginalized communities get the food resources they require during this time, and to work with City Harvest to distribute meals to my neighbors in need across the New York area. Thank you to everyone on the front line working to keep all of us safe, healthy, and fed. Together we can change the world one small gesture at a time."
“The COVID-19 virus presents extraordinary challenges for moving, storing, and distributing food on a large scale,” said Greg Lehmkuhl, Lineage’s President & CEO. “At Lineage, we’ve built a business dedicated to shepherding food all over the world, and that experience puts us in a unique position to help overcome these challenges. We want to do our part by sharing what we have to offer – including temperature-controlled warehouse space, supply chain logistics expertise and financial resources.”
City Harvest is dedicated to feeding New Yorkers who are struggling to put meals on their tables, and in response to the COVID-19 crisis and its devastating economic impact, the organization is stepping up to rescue and deliver more food to meet the increasing need. Deemed an essential service by Governor Cuomo and New York State, its fleet of 22 trucks will continue to be on the road, working hard to make sure all children, families, and New Yorkers in need have enough nutritious food in the coming weeks, months, and beyond.
Lineage is working with a variety of strategic partners, including Kyrie and Stephen and Ayesha Curry’s foundation, Eat. Learn. Play., to achieve its campaign goal of 100 million meals. Recognizing that COVID-19 is a worldwide crisis, Lineage is working with the Global FoodBanking Network , to provide funds, donate food, and volunteer the company’s storage resources and distribution expertise on a global scale. The Company will also leverage its expansive network of customers, which includes some of the world’s largest food producers and manufacturers, to join Lineage in its commitment to reach Share A Meal ’s ambitious goal.

*100 million meal equivalent will include financial and in-kind donations facilitated by Lineage and its partners to Feeding America and other hunger-relief organizations.
**The 250,000 meal donation is equivalent to 25,000 pounds of food being donated to City Harvest as well as a $25,000 monetary donation, according to the following calculation: $1 = 10 meals.
