Thousands of kids in low-income neighborhoods across New York now can benefit with programs focused on health and wellness, financial literacy and mentorship even more with the recent backing of Danone
The purpose-driven Danone North America (one of the largest Certified B Corporationsยฎ) is proudly working with Matt and ABC Food Tours. Together they will work to help replenish and diversify food options at New York City schools’ pantries this summer by donating thousands of units of products from its So Delicious and Silk brands. We hope you enjoyed learning about the dynamic, sustainable, and delicious brands that fall under Danone.
