(March 19) -- Inspired by a 5-year-old girl's efforts that led to more than $30,000 being raised for the San Francisco Food Bank, Tyson Foods has named Phoebe Russell a "Hunger All-Star."
To honor Phoebe's work toward hunger relief, Tyson has donated 30,000 pounds of chicken to the food bank, local TV station KGO has reported.
Phoebe, now 6, was moved to do something about the hunger problem in her city last year when she saw a man begging for food on the street as she was on her way to preschool.
Her preschool required every student to take part in a community service project in order to "graduate." Phoebe told her teacher she wanted to collect cans to raise money for the people she passed by every day.
