Zero Hunger

For Earth Day 2017, Feeding America® is announcing the launch of MealConnectTM, an innovative technology platform that makes food donation as simple as a click. The new and free platform was developed to help reduce food waste, benefit the environment and put more food on the tables of families and individuals facing hunger in America.

Barco, Wendy’s uniform supplier, has not only been a great supplier to our system, but a great partner to our brand charity of choice, the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption® (DTFA). Barco started their Hats Off program several years ago and a portion of the proceeds from the sale of every Wendy’s crew hat is donated to the DTFA. Their founder, Michael Donner, is also on the DTFA’s Supplier Advisory Council. Everyone at Wendy’s is thankful to have Barco as a partner on our journey to find forever families for children in foster care.

In this webinar hosted by the UN Global Compact and the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OCHA), experts give an overview of the situation in the four countries, present the humanitarian needs and identify areas in which businesses could make a difference and contribute to ending the crisis.
