This year in NYC was truly special as we celebrated a remarkable achievement with our client NYC Health + Hospitals, marking over 1.2 million plant-based patient meals served since 2022. 🌟 At our Sodexo Culinary Center in Brooklyn, we were honored to host press members, officials from Mayor Eric Adams’ office, and culinary experts for an extraordinary tasting of vegan hospital cuisine curated by the Mayor's Office of Food Policy. The menu dazzled with delights like jerk mushroom with collard greens, sancocho, pea pesto penne, and even a sumptuous vegan panna cotta, meticulously crafted to delight palates while prioritizing health. This innovative project represents our commitment to revolutionizing hospital dining and demonstrates cost-effectiveness, with savings being used to improve patient care. By making plant-based options the default choice, we empower patients to make healthier choices. This project is a testament to the unwavering dedication of our teams at Sodexo, as well as our partners at the Mayor's Office of Food Policy and NYC Health and Hospitals. Together, we are committed to promoting health, sustainability, and culinary excellence.

🌟✨ We are thrilled to celebrate the success of Sodexo Seniors' First Annual "Week of Giving" in the Blazer Region led by Tracy Blazer, SVP for the west in Seniors. Earlier this year, Sodexo Seniors employees within the Blazer region came together to give back to their client or personal communities and embody the spirit of service that is a cornerstone of Sodexo's commitment. Each district manager within the Blazer Region nominated a general manager to serve as a council member, aiding in the planning and execution of this impactful initiative. The goal was to support charitable causes and make a difference in the lives of others. We are proud to share some of the recent initiatives completed across different regions. In the Pacific Northwest, our teams supported charitable causes such as Nourish Pierce County and NW Harvest SODO. They sorted 1,200 pounds of pasta and 2,000 pounds of rice to aid those in need. Additionally, the Miller District collected over 1,800 canned items, 108 clothing items, and made a significant impact on addressing food insecurity and clothing needs. The results speak volumes: a total of 77 volunteers dedicated 247 hours to support 19 charities, demonstrating the immense generosity and community spirit within the Blazer Region. We are incredibly proud of our teams' efforts, and we appreciate their commitment to making a difference in the lives of others!

In continuation of our #WomenRisingSeries, meet Melanie Sweeney Fetzer, our National Senior Vice President of Business Development for Sodexo Campus! Mel's insights on gender equality and women's leadership are truly inspiring. Here's what Mel had to say: Despite progress, barriers still exist for women in leadership. Many lack exposure or networking opportunities, making it challenging to break through from mid-tier to senior-level roles. "Throughout my career, amazing female leaders supported my aspirations. I pay it forward by hiring, mentoring, and advocating for growth. Over half of our Sodexo Campus commercial team are women!" Sodexo, led by global CEO Sophie Bellon, advocates for women from the top-down. We're committed to gender-balanced management teams by 2025, ensuring better outcomes for all. Everyone can create positive environments for women to thrive. As leaders, it's our duty to build pathways for the next generation of female leaders. #WomenInLeadership #GenderEquality #Inspiration #DEI
