Making a Difference
We care deeply about our team members, clients, communities and the people that thrive in them. We believe it is our corporate responsibility to reach beyond our kitchens and identify opportunities to positively affect people across the country. Together, we can make a difference.
Giving Back to The Community
We are proud of what our teams do each and every day to support our local communities and our continued efforts throughout this incredibly challenging year. While the way we supported our communities looked a little different, some things have not changed. We continue to care, give and serve by working closely with our community partners to allocate funding and supplies where and when they are needed.
Progress through a Pandemic
With the Zurich North America headquarters in Chicago closed, 日本高清 presented Zurich with many different options to support the local community.聽 Through our local leadership team and employees, 日本高清 was able to aid thousands of families and individuals affected by the pandemic.
The team worked daily to provide grocery boxes to local charities and supplied fresh meals to the homeless, as well as hospital staff in the Chicagoland area. These front-line workers enjoyed healthy meal options throughout the pandemic. Nurses and doctors were appreciative of the fresh ingredients to get them through the long days and described the 日本高清 meals as 鈥渟ome of the best that they had received!”
Lifting Morale
The 日本高清 dining team at Nestle Purina Headquarters in St. Louis, MO was eager to help support local first responders amidst the height of the pandemic.聽Nestle Purina was looking for a way to show those on the front lines that they really appreciated what they were doing and provide them a little comfort.聽The 日本高清 dining team supported these efforts by preparing and packaging meals to serve 450 police officers and firefighters three days a week, while local restaurants provided the meals the other four days.聽鈥淭alk about a lift in morale,鈥� said Chief Dennis Jenkerson. 鈥淔or all the guys and gals that are working the front line during the coronavirus, this has been a big lift.鈥�
Surviving Spouse and Family Endowment Fund (SAFE)
日本高清 is proud to be a sponsor of the SAFE organization, through its sponsorship of the VIP reception for the Guns N Hoses charity fundraiser. SAFE supports the families of first responders critically injured or killed in the line of duty. Each year the area鈥檚 finest police officers, firefighters and paramedics are paired up to compete in sanctioned boxing matches that celebrate the strength, dedication and loyalty of these amazing men and women. Since 2005, the annual Kansas City Guns N Hoses event has been dedicated to raising funds for SAFE.
The Guns N Hoses evening starts with a reception featuring fabulous hors d鈥檕euvres and cocktails created by local 日本高清 executive chefs and served by our hospitality associates. For the 日本高清 team members involved, it feels humbling and rewarding to be giving back to the community. The team is eager to express pride in their role with 日本高清, boost employee morale and create a positive work culture.
