YUMeals Program

We're also addressing hunger across the U.S. through our YUMeals program. Since its launch over a decade ago, YUMeals has become the largest prepared-food donation program in the world. Through YUMeals, in 2007 we donated nearly 11 million pounds of wholesome food, with a fair market value of $45 million, to needy families and children. Since creation of the program, we've donated over 105 million pounds of food, with a value of $403 million, to those at risk of hunger.

The food is distributed through a network of over 3,000 hunger relief organizations in hundreds of communities across the U.S. We are exploring initiating this program in other countries in 2008 and 2009.
