STOP Hunger - A Sodexo Initiative

STOP Hunger
In 2005, we launched the STOP Hunger campaign in the UK & Ireland which aims to tackle poor nutrition in our local communities and provides a central focus for our community related activities. STOP Hunger was created to reflect one of our core business areas, food services.

STOP Hunger consists of three main components:

  • Financial donations through fundraising
  • Sharing of Sodexo knowledge with our charity partners
  • Employee volunteering through our charity partners

It is managed through the Sodexo Foundation, a registered charity established to provide a framework for charitable giving in a systematic and thoughtful way, and receives the majority of its contributions from employee fundraising with Sodexo covering all associated administration costs.
