Gruppo Casalasco has renewed also for 2024 its support to Banco Alimentare for a Christmas of solidarity.
The initiative, aimed at families and people in difficulty, envisages an economic donation in favour of Banco Alimentare that will allow the recovery and distribution of food to people in need, through the territorial partner organisations, amounting to 100,000 meals* (*a ‘meal equivalent’ corresponds to a mix of 500 grams of food according to the LARN - Reference Intake Levels of Nutrients and Energy for the Italian population). Casalasco, which has always been attentive to the needs of the population of the area in which it operates, has extended the donation nationwide again this year, in order to help as many people as possible. The charitable initiative implemented by Casalasco during the Christmas festivities is in addition to the collaboration against food waste that the Group, by periodically donating its products, has been pursuing with the organisation for several years now.
‘Being able to bring concrete help to people through food, the focus of our entire activity, has a deep meaning for us, which is rooted in our corporate culture,’ says Costantino Vaia, CEO of Casalasco.’ Once again, we have enthusiastically renewed our commitment alongside Banco Alimentare, because it is a valuable reference point in the Italian social fabric and makes us part of a chain of solidarity that further enhances the value of our entire supply chain.
‘We are grateful to Casalasco, which for the second year has wanted us at its side for this charitable initiative. It is important for us to be able to count on the constant support of partner companies in order to be able to continue our daily work, particularly in a difficult and complex period such as this, which puts thousands of people in serious difficulty. We are certain that our path with Casalasco will continue with ever greater responsibility for the benefit of so many families in difficulty,' says Giovanni Bruno, president of Fondazione Banco Alimentare ETS.
