13 Novembre 2024 - 11:13PM
Today, Sysco Corporation (NYSE:SYY), the world’s largest food
distributor, presented a check for $10,000 to Three Square Food
Bank to support the local community where Sysco operates. Sysco’s
donation is part of the company’s signature Nourishing
Neighbors
® program where a portion of the proceeds
from each Sysco branded case sold in local communities is donated
back to charitable organizations in those communities.
Sysco Las Vegas also donated 2,500 turkeys to be distributed
through Three Square at local distribution events across the
community this month. As part of Sysco’s annual Purpose Month,
a month dedicated to volunteerism, Sysco colleagues also
volunteered at the food bank to pack 250 shelf-stable packages, 250
bags of produce, and 1,200 Meals on Wheels senior bags to feed the
community this holiday season.
“We are honored to make this donation to Three Square Food Bank
to nourish and serve our local community this holiday season. Food
brings us together, especially during the holidays. At Sysco, we
believe that everyone deserves a warm meal and a reason to
celebrate, and we are committed to helping make that possible,”
says Matt Jacobson, Sysco’s Desert Region President.
“Though hunger is not seasonal, thousands of neighbors will be
reaching out for help accessing basic needs and simple comforts
during the holidays,” said Beth Martino, President and CEO of Three
Square Food Bank. “The incredible support we’ve received from Sysco
will allow us to provide nourishing meals to the one in seven
Southern Nevadans facing food insecurity. We are truly grateful for
their commitment to ending hunger in our community.”
In Fiscal 2024, Sysco Las Vegas also donated nearly 33,000 meals
to Three Squares Food Bank.
