Lifeway Foods, a leading provider of kefir and farmer cheese products, has stepped up to support those affected by the devastating California wildfires. In response to the ongoing crisis, Lifeway has taken proactive steps to provide critical aid to those in need.

One of the key initiatives taken by Lifeway Foods is a generous donation of $10,000 to Bethenny Frankel’s BStrong organization, which is actively involved in providing relief to wildfire victims. This contribution reflects Lifeway’s commitment to making a positive impact in communities facing adversity.

In addition to this financial support, Lifeway Foods has also partnered with the nonprofit organization Chicago Chefs Cook, along with local Chicago-based restaurants, to raise funds for Chicago Chefs Cook 4 LA. Through this partnership, a percentage of proceeds from participating restaurants will be donated to support relief efforts in wildfire-affected areas.

Furthermore, Lifeway Foods is organizing a community drive at its corporate locations in Niles, Illinois, and Waukesha, Wisconsin, to collect essential supplies for those impacted by the wildfires. The drive will be held from now until January 17, from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Each location is accepting donations of non-perishable food items, water, and baby food to help meet the immediate needs of individuals and families affected by the disaster.
