Mr. Arnaud Bialecki, Country President of Sodexo Thailand, said, "The STOP HUNGER activity has resumed after the past two years of COVID-19 pandemic. With the help of our volunteer employees, we offered a "Cooking Class" activity for the students to learn how to prepare the ingredients and cook step by step with hygienic practices. We also held a "Knowledge Sharing" activity to educate the students on how to dispose of food waste effectively and sustainably. These activities would be useful for the students, and hopefully, they can share their newfound knowledge with their families and the community around the school. In addition, we also brought over 250 sets of food for the children and the elderly in the community as well as donated cash and necessary items with a total value of more than 200,000 baht to support education and activities for the students."
Samnan Chaiyakote, Acting Director of Mechai Pattana School said, "Mechai Pattana School is a private, non-profit school. Students from all over the country come to study here without having to pay any tuition fees. However, both the parents and students have to contribute 800 hours of community service and plant 800 trees instead. Our focus is to encourage the students to be good and disciplined individuals with public consciousness. We also offer a curriculum that puts an emphasis on enhancing the students' potential, developing the skills of social entrepreneurship, encouraging them to think outside the box when searching for answers, and promoting cooperation with the surrounding communities to achieve a better quality of life. This is in line with Sodexo's mission of providing services that improve the quality of life. We are delighted to have the opportunity to welcome the executives and staff from Sodexo Thailand who visited us to share great knowledge with our students and donate both the money and various necessities. We promise that we will put the knowledge we received today into practice and pass it on to our nearby communities."
