H.K. Anderson Pretzel today announced a two-year partnership and scholarship donation to Pop Warner Little Scholars, Inc., the largest youth football, cheer and dance program in the United States, encouraging families to sign its Healthy Snack Draft and commit to simpler, healthier snacking this fall sports season.

“H.K. Anderson is dedicated to strengthening our communities by promoting active, healthier families and ultimately, an active, healthier America,” said Steve Robinson, director of business development. “Through our partnership with Pop Warner Little Scholars, we are asking football and cheer families nationwide to cut back on poor snacking habits and ‘trade up’ to higher quality, wholesome snacking this season.”


Recognizing mutual goals, H.K. Anderson has partnered with Pop Warner in asking everyone from coaches

to players and families to sign the season-long “Snack Draft” online or via Facebook and receive free snacks, coupons, retro football gear and active living tips. Throughout the season, H.K. Anderson will also provide a variety of pretzels at Pop Warner games in local communities and at national Pop Warner events.

“As Pop Warner prepares to enter its 81 st season, we are excited to have a partner like H.K. Anderson that can provide products to our members that support lifelong healthy eating and snacking habits,” said Mary Fitzgerald, chief operating officer at Pop Warner.

“H.K. Anderson’s family heritage and deep commitment to the community represent the values and traditions Pop Warner has looked to instill in participants since its founding. We are pleased to have H.K. Anderson aligned with the Pop Warner brand.”
