At least 75% of these funds support organizations focused on food access and hunger relief.<\/p>\n<p>As part of a multiyear partnership with Second Harvest, Sysco Canada will also direct 15% of all Nourishing Neighbours donations to Second Harvest to help address food insecurity in Northern and remote communities, where the need is more prevalent, persistent and complex.<\/p>\n<p>Sysco Canada has donated in fiscal year 2025 more than 1.2 million meals to communities across the country. In addition, Sysco Canada has provided over $365,000 in financial support to community partners and colleagues have volunteered more than 13,000 hours with food banks, community kitchens and food rescue organizations. Through these combined efforts, we supported more than 220 community partners nationwide.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSysco Canada\u2019s commitment to fighting food insecurity has made a lasting difference for communities from coast to coast to coast. Together, we\u2019ve helped provide more than one million meals to people in need across Canada, advancing our shared mission to keep good food on plates and out of landfills. We\u2019re deeply grateful for Sysco\u2019s 26 years of partnership and look forward to building on this impact together,\u201d said Lori Nikkel, CEO of Second Harvest.<\/p>\n<p>By working together, Sysco Canada and Second Harvest show how businesses, non-profits, and government partners can tackle food insecurity in meaningful, lasting ways. Their ongoing partnership goes beyond simple donations, reflecting a shared commitment to creating measurable, long-term impact and building stronger, more resilient communities across Canada.<\/p>\n<p>You can find b-roll from the event and of the Second Harvest facility\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=UULLOEihIWAFPWEmu4s8-6II2imAJ8IuntQygpYIrYl9ptpJl3h2MmOQSVaPUsN7J3z_AtTaug1Zes6OMDQMZvHg1m9IcYRotTDLUum5WFseJxwQKPBhj69bo6NCXpxDT7yC28Mbg4igBuTFO5W1Geqf5j5y2CCXh22c_5ZZ1a2bmc9tyEk-amSrT811wtp4A1OeQnT9X1C6ninFDWE_FwPPM4K15lF2U7aWK3dWdEe-6gS-iVXQhHV1ffCPdavWXdg3bhVoqSP-xEL1yPv-7Q8JCdp-Cq6lVYrr1wUqFrQAN1NXgoAgjMQ76JTJTbkF943tApp-1G1JbZSu6gO1HFTx6cKaPVaTTRgVUccMwDzedmxbUVAWbmXJO7SnHwAiSEK5vhOLxtLQLWrH5TVWVA==\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Sysco<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sysco is the global leader in selling, marketing and distributing food and related products to customers who prepare meals away from home.
