Sysco Announces Take Out to Give Back Social Media Campaign

The
campaign encourages the public to:

• Order food to-go, for delivery,
  or through a gift card purchase;
• Post photos of their purchases
  on social media;
• Use the hashtags
  #takeouttogiveback and #nokidhungry;
• Tag the restaurant in the post.

For
every post, Sysco will donate 50 cents up to $150,000 to No Kid Hungry, a
campaign run by Share Our Strength, a non-profit working to solve problems of
hunger and poverty in the U.S. and around the world.

“Food
is our business and our passion and given the current environment, it’s our
best opportunity to not only make a meaningful difference in the communities
where we operate and live, but also help drive traffic to our customers’
businesses in a safe manner,” said Neil Russell, Sysco’s vice president of
corporate affairs. “Given the rapidly changing environment due to the COVID-19
pandemic, Sysco is actively working to identify ways to support our customers,
communities and business partners during this challenging time.”

With
global engagement across social media platforms over the month-long period,
Sysco hopes to drive business at restaurants across the country while feeding
those in need.
