Taylor teamed up with NFL Hall of Fame and Houston Texans legend Andre Johnson for Crown Royal’s Purple Bag Food Drive at the Houston Food Bank.

Taylor and Andre helped volunteers pack meals to distribute to families in need.
She shared, “Everything about Crown Royal is about generosity and about that person-to-person connection.”
The event took place on Nov. 19 and Crown Royal presented the Houston Food Bank with a $20,000 donation.
Crown Royal will continue to collect food donations with their 18-wheeler, the Crown Royal Rig. The company partnered with North Texas Food Bank and Feeding Northwest Florida for upcoming stops in Dallas on November 27 and Jacksonville on December 7.
