Jun 13, 2013 3:00 PM ET

ARAMARK employees created an ARAMARK Building Community Opportunity Zone focused on workforce readiness at the Federation of Neighborhood Centers’ (FNC) Lutheran Settlement House in the Fishtown neighborhood of Philadelphia. Lutheran Settlement House provides social, educational and advocacy services to help people be self-sufficient. Employee volunteers renovated five underutilized rooms, transforming them into an efficient workforce development resource center that will include a computer lab.

ARAMARK Building Community (ABC) is the company’s strategic philanthropic and volunteer program dedicated to enriching the lives of families around the world. ARAMARK will continue to collaborate with FNC and its 13 member community centers to develop and enhance sustainable programs with the goal of improving family health and nutrition, and preparing adults and youth for the workforce.
