Community Outreach

We are dedicated members of our communities

Being responsible citizens does not mean simply employing residents; it means engaging in meaningful, impactful initiatives for our families, friends and neighbors everywhere.

Through volunteering we foster team work & connection to our communities.

Impact 10

Celebrating 10 great years of business in the Mid-South

Celebrating 10 Years of Impact at Monogram Foods

Monogram Team Members performed acts of kindness in the Memphis community and nominated local charities to enter into a drawing to receive donations. We received over 3,000 submissions and acts of kindness were performed.

IMPACT10 caught on early when an anonymous donor added $50,000 to our original $100,000 commitment. Ten charities were selected via drawing over ten weeks. Starting in 2014, each winning charity receives $1,500 a year until 2024.

Harlan Annual Parade

Our team members in Harlan live and work in a very tight-knit community. Each year, our team members participate in the local homecoming parade and hand out free bacon to town residents. It’s a day filled with good times and even better bacon!

Memphis Zoo Dream Night

We partnered with the Memphis Zoo to host Memphis Zoo Dream Night. Attending families get to visit the zoo after hours while we cook hot dogs and smoked sausages for dinner.

Families of children’s hospitals and outreach facilities like St. Jude Children’s Hospital, Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital, Madonna Learning Center, Mid-South Down Syndrome Association, and the Special Olympics are invited to attend.
