US Foods has announced that over the course of 2022 the company donated nearly $13 million in food and supplies, the equivalent of approximately six million meals or more than 265 truckloads of product. 

During 2022, the company organized a variety of associate giving and volunteer campaigns in support of community hunger relief efforts and donated more than 400,000 meals. Activities included a week-long “Spring into Service” campaign in which associates participated in various company-sponsored community service events, a Hunger Action Month campaign, and a month-long holiday “Giving Gratitude” campaign, dedicated to supporting communities struggling with food insecurity. US Foods also donated $100,000 to the American Red Cross in support of Hurricane Ian disaster relief efforts in Florida.

“As a national foodservice distributor, US Foods is uniquely positioned to make a meaningful difference in hunger relief efforts across the country by donating our time and resources,” said US Foods executive vice president and chief human resources officer David Works. “We are humbled and grateful to give back to the communities where we live and work by harnessing the power of food to empower people in need with nourishment and opportunity, and [are] thankful for the dedication of our outstanding associates who have participated in our annual hunger relief campaigns.”
