More than 500 dairy farmers in twenty PA and MD counties financially support the program to promote the use of their products. The AMPC is directed by a Central Board, and its message is implemented by a full-time dairy marketing specialist and assistants.

Mission Statement

The mission of the Allied Milk Producers' Cooperative is to teach people of all ages the need to enhance and preserve their nutritional health through the consumption of vitamins and minerals from the five food groups, with emphasis on three daily servings from the milk group.

To achieve this mission we will:

• Build a program to promote and advertise the necessity of a calcium-rich diet.

• Be keen on investing our resources in projects that portray the benefits of healthy eating.

• Aim for the attention of all age groups, and inspire them to be examples of this mission every day.

• Use all media and informational avenues to impact our message on consumers.
