Herr’s Foods will donate five cents to the Autism Society of America for every package of its specially labelled whole grain pretzel twists sold in April.

NOTTINGHAM — April is National Autism Awareness Month, and Herr’s® is partnering with the Autism Society of America. The company is producing limited edition Whole Grain Pretzels with Flax Seed & Honey in a specially designed puzzle-patterned bag filled with ribbon-shaped pretzels in support of autism awareness.

“At Herr’s, we believe in partnering with charitable organizations and in giving back to our community in any way we can,” said Ed Herr, president of Herr Foods. “We are proud to support the Autism Society of America, which is essential in improving the lives of autistic individuals across their lifespan and increasing awareness of the cause.”

For every bag sold, Herr’s will make a 5-cent donation to the Autism Society of America, one of the nation’s leading grassroots autism organizations dedicated to improving the lives of those affected by autism spectrum disorder. The organization provides the latest information regarding treatment, education, research and advocacy.

“We are delighted to partner with Herr Foods for promoting autism awareness,” said Scott Badesch, president and CEO of the Autism Society of America. “Through the generous support from Herr Foods we are able to help individuals living on the spectrum maximize their quality of life each and every day.”

The limited edition autism awareness Herr’s Whole Grain Pretzels with Flax Seed & Honey feature the rich flavors of sesame, poppy and caraway seeds complemented with a hint of sweet golden honey. They are low in fat, a good source of whole grain and are higher in fiber than most pretzels.  The autism awareness pretzels are available until May at select retailers throughout the country.
