Doing good through food®
Together, Schreiber and the Schreiber Foods Foundation provide support to charitable organizations and programs that address food insecurity and basic needs in our communities.
As a leader in the food industry, we’re excited to be able to give back beyond funding so we can maximize our impact and do good through food.
Let’s make a difference together
We’re committed to making a difference in the communities where our partners work, live and play.
Through the Schreiber Foundation, we strengthen our community by awarding grants to charitable organizations that address basic needs. We focus our philanthropic support in areas of food, housing and education.

Granting an unforgettable camp experience
Thousands of campers and youth with disabilities are enjoying a much-needed new dining space at Camp Barnabas in Purdy, Missouri, thanks largely to a grant from the Schreiber Foods Foundation.
As the camp has grown throughout the years, the dining hall could no longer efficiently serve the needs of campers and staff.
Now the camp has different dining structures that help them prep special diets and have the appropriate equipment to serve their camper population.
A small truck that can feed thousands
A truck seems like a big donation. When it comes to helping those in need in Carthage, Missouri, it’s huge.
“Crosslines Ministry is so grateful to Schreiber for funding the purchase of this box truck!” wrote Toni Smith, Executive Director at Crosslines Ministry. “We would stand out in the rain and physically unload each and every box off of a pallet then re-unload them back at Crosslines. No more standing in the rain, the snow, or out in the cold for extended amounts of time loading and unloading our pickup truck.”
As one of the grants from the annual distribution through the Schreiber Foundation, Schreiber purchased a box truck with hydraulic lift for Crosslines Ministries in Carthage. They previously used a small, uncovered pickup truck to receive their donations.
“When a store like Sam’s Club says, ‘We have food,’ you have to go get it,” said Bob Goar, Plant Manager at Carthage and board member at Crosslines. “Otherwise, someone else will. Now they can load full pallets right on the truck and won’t miss out on donations.”
Making a dinosaur-sized impact in Missouri
Volunteering at the Missouri Institute of Natural Science has been a big part of life for one of our partners, Daniel. He’s put in more than 10,000 hours 3D printing 200-plus bones – all for one giant triceratops named Henry.
Assembly of Henry slowed down considerably during the pandemic. It takes about three people just to mount one rib, and Daniel says it’s been difficult finding volunteers.
“I try to help out at the museum at least one day a week,” Daniel said.
Daniel recently had the opportunity to go on a dig in Eastern Wyoming to uncover the final pieces of a less common dinosaur called a nodosaur.
“We didn’t find anything additional for the nodosaur, but we did revisit Henry’s dig sit and uncovered another large piece of Henry called an ischium,” Daniel said. “The site is being reopened, and we’ll probably go dig on it again next year in hopes of finding more.”
Schreiber recently sponsored the museum’s annual 5K for the second year. And thanks to Schreiber’s Matching Gifts Program, the museum was able to purchase a new 3D printer with the money Daniel donated and matching funds from Schreiber.
“Schreiber has also donated the steel we use in mounting,” Daniel said. “I enjoy that partners have found interest in it, and it’s great to have Schreiber’s support.”
