Paycom's founder Chad Richison is pledging $2 million to the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma.

The organization says the donation will provide about 45,000 emergency food boxes.

The Regional Food Bank says donations have slowed down and there's a higher demand because of COVID-19.

"I am passionate about this state and want to help ensure Oklahomans who are or may soon be struggling due to the coronavirus don’t have to worry about food," said Paycom’s founder and CEO, Chad Richison. "If needed, I will give more to feed Oklahomans during this time of crisis. We are all in this together, and together we will get through this."
