Sysco Employees Provide Nearly 100,000 Meals During Hunger Action Month

Oct 9, 2018 6:15 PM ET

September was Hunger Action Month! Associates at our Enclave and Cypress campuses were given the opportunity to volunteer with various hunger organizations across the Houston area.

"I'm extremely proud that during Hunger Action Month, we successfully came together as OneSysco to compile, serve and/or donate close to 100,000 meals to those underserved in our own community and beyond. While it's been a goal of ours for several years to focus 75 percent of donations of volunteer hours toward supporting organizations that work to eliminate hunger, we've stepped up our focus and commitment with our recently announced 2025 CSR goals."

- Catherine Kayser, Vice President, Corporate Social Responsibility
