NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESSWIRE / June 27, 2024 / Whirlpool Corporation is expanding its Feel Good Fridge program by engaging HelloFresh, the world's leading meal kit company, and Total Quality Logistics (TQL), one of the largest third-party logistics firms in North America.
惠而浦公司正在擴展其“Feel Good Fridge”計劃，與全球領先的餐飲套餐公司HelloFresh和北美最大的第三方物流公司Total Quality Logistics（TQL）合作。
Launched by Whirlpool Corp. in 2021, the Feel Good Fridge program provides refurbished refrigerators to food pantries and nonprofit organizations across the county, like the North Texas Food Bank in Dallas, to deliver free, fresh food for anyone in need. Starting with a local initiative in the Dallas area late last year, the three companies are now expanding their combined resources and expertise to reach more people in need across the country. Together, they'll impact 13 cities with Whirlpool Corp. providing 2000 refrigerators which TQL will transport and HelloFresh will help fill with wholesome and fresh ingredients.
Feel Good Fridge計劃是Whirlpool Corp在2021年推出的，該公司向全國的食品銀行和非營利組織提供翻新後的冰箱，例如位於達拉斯的北德克薩斯食品銀行，以提供免費的新鮮食品。去年晚些時候，從達拉斯地區的一個地方性倡議開始，這三家公司現在正在擴大他們的聯合資源和專業知識，以便在全國範圍內幫助更多需要幫助的人。他們將一起影響13個城市，惠而浦公司提供2000臺冰箱，TQL將運輸，HelloFresh將幫助填充健康新鮮的材料。
"Across the U.S., 44 million people, and one in five children, face hunger," said Pam Klyn, Whirlpool Corporation's executive vice president of corporate relations and sustainability. "We launched Feel Good Fridge to fight food insecurity in a sustainable way, and collaborating with HelloFresh and TQL allows us to expand our impact in the communities that need it most."
惠而浦公司的企業關係和可持續性高級副總裁帕姆·克林表示：“在美國，有4400萬人，每五個兒童中就有一個人面臨飢餓的問題。”“我們推出了Feel Good Fridge計劃，以可持續的方式解決食品不安全問題，與HelloFresh和TQL合作可以擴大我們在最需要幫助的社區的影響。”
In the three years since its launch, the Feel Good Fridge program has donated more than 900 refurbished refrigerators, keeping them out of landfills; delivered more than 250,000 pounds of food, helping avoid waste; and reached more than 25,000 families.
自推出以來，Feel Good Fridge計劃已經捐贈了900多臺翻新後的冰箱，讓它們避免被填埋;提供了超過25,000個家庭，分發了超過250,000磅的食品，幫助避免浪費。
"Increasing the availability and accessibility of fresh produce and ingredients is a key part of HelloFresh's mission to fight food insecurity," said Jeff Yorzyk, senior director of sustainability at HelloFresh. "We're proud to partner with Whirlpool and TQL to help alleviate food insecurity by meeting communities in need where they are."
HelloFresh的高級可持續發展總監Jeff Yorzyk表示：“增加新鮮產品和食材的供應和可獲得性是HelloFresh打擊食品不安全問題使命的關鍵部分。我們很自豪能夠與惠而浦和TQL合作，在滿足需要的社區。
"We started Moves that Matter with the goal of aiding nonprofits by taking the complexity and expense of logistics off of their plate," TQL President Kerry Byrne said. "It is an honor to be a part of this collaborative effort with Whirlpool Corporation and HelloFresh to bring more fresh, nutritious food to communities struggling with food insecurity ."
TQL總裁Kerry Byrne表示：“我們開展“移動意義”的目標是幫助非營利組織，從而減輕物流的複雜性和成本。很榮幸能夠參與此次與惠而浦公司和HelloFresh的協作，以提供更多新鮮、營養的食物來幫助食品不安全問題比較嚴重的社區。”
Feeding America, who has been supplying food for the Feel Good Fridge program since its inception, will continue to provide food, with HelloFresh and TQL providing enhanced support in communities with the greatest need. The program will remain dedicated to food-insecure areas with high concentration of needs.
自推出以來，Feeding America一直爲“Feel Good Fridge”計劃提供食品，而HelloFresh和TQL則在有最大需求的社區提供增強支持。該計劃將繼續致力於食品不安全地區的高需求程度。
