As a family, we believe we have a responsibility to help our community and make it a better place. Through our city’s highs and lows, we have always tried to support those in need as well as donate to foundations we believe in. We also like to take care of those who do the same. At LKL Packing, we give discounts to any members of the local police, fire departments, churches and military.
Operation Give
Smith Meat Packing has been a longtime, valued supporter of Operation Give, a 501(c)(3) foundation. The mission of Operation Give is to inspire people to make a difference in the lives of children. Smith Meat Packing was one of Operation Give’s first corporate sponsors, dating back to 2007. At its annual fundraiser in 2018, Operation Give established the Anthony Peters Charitable Giving Award, in recognition of the generosity of Anthony Peters, the President of Smith Meat Packing. Operation Give was thrilled to name that award after Mr. Peters and honored to recognize him as the first recipient. Each year, the award will recognize one important supporter of Operation Give.
