More than 33,000 Sodexo employees in 36 countries donated and collected enough food for 815,000 meals and raised funds to fight hunger and malnutrition during the company’s annual Servathon in April and May. All together Sodexo employees volunteered more than 82,100 hours to help their local community members have enough food to eat.

“The real power of Servathon is the Sodexo people. By coming together in local actions this operation has a real impact on the people most in need,” said Clodine Pincemin, President of Stop Hunger. “What happens in all of the local communities radically changes the lives of people, and Sodexo volunteers often report that they are transformed by their participation as well. I am very grateful to Sodexo for helping us in our mission to fight hunger and malnutrition around the world.”
