Holiday Hunger Global Meal Packing Events

About This Project

Summary

The holiday season can be challenging for people in our communities around the world experiencing food insecurity. As a global food and beverage company with associates and facilities worldwide, we saw an opportunity to engage associates in this cause. Associates from select international PepsiCo markets joined together to participate in meal-packing events and give back during a time of increased food insecurity. This campaign supports the Foundation & PepsiCo’s global food security commitments

Goals & Objectives

While we host U.S. meal-packing events throughout the year and during the Ramadan Filling Hearts campaign, this campaign aimed to have a global reach, empowering associates to volunteer in as many markets as possible to maximize impact & create momentum for future holiday volunteering campaigns.

Results & Impact

The PepsiCo Foundation hosted 17 meal-packing events across the United States, United Kingdom, Spain, Mexico, South Africa, and Australia, engaging 670+ associates and 16 nonprofit partners to pack and donate 58,000 meals and 7,600 food packages.
