Passion for Service Builds Local Communities Around the Globe
PHILADELPHIA, April 23, 2015 /3BL Media/ -- Throughout the month of April and all year long, thousands of Aramark associates volunteer their time at local community centers and non-profit organizations in cities and towns around the world.
"We are so grateful that our 270,000 associates have a passion for service and volunteerism and salute them for their commitment to building local communities," said Bev Dribin, Vice President of Community Relations at Aramark. "From Cleveland to Korea, Aramark team members have helped to enrich and nourish the lives of children and families by planting fruit and vegetable gardens, teaching nutrition, wellness and career skills workshops and building community playgrounds."
During Volunteer Month and throughout the year, as part of Aramark Building Community, the company's volunteer and philanthropic program, Aramark team members work to improve family health, prepare youth and adults for work, and support individuals and families in underserved communities.
Aramark Building Community Day, the company's global day of service, is scheduled for September 17 when thousands of employees will come together for an annual celebration of the company's year round commitment to enrich and nourish lives in communities around the world.
Since 2008, Aramark has invested millions of dollars in volunteer expertise, financial and in-kind resources to strengthen the capacity of several hundred local community centers, involving the skills and expertise of more than 25,000 employees and impacting millions of people.
