Access to healthy food has always been important. However, the current health pandemic is making it even more difficult for individuals to maintain a nutritious diet—to a great extent, this is a consequence of increased global food insecurity.
Dole Packaged Foods, LLC is looking to alleviate these stresses and provide access to healthy foods for all. The company is inviting others to join its quest in supplying nutritious foods to those in need. Dole Packaged Foods plans to reach its goal through strategic partnerships and donations. The initiative is referred to as "Sunshine for All Promise."
So far, the company has partnered with Lyft to deliver food to underserved seniors, teamed up with World Central Kitchen to support seniors and underserved families, and much more.
