Bill Ray On The Benefits Of Supporting Giving Kitchen

The entire US Foods family quickly embraced Giving Kitchen’s cause during the first Team Hidi. We realized our responsibility to help our industry because the very nature of our business provides a unique opportunity to speak to food service workers every week.

Our relationship with GK is one of the most important and valued partnerships we have at US Foods, so we were proud to become the first company to participate in GK’s Hope Distributors program. Educating our customers about how GK can help them aligns perfectly with our company’s We Help You Make It strategy and core values.

The need for Giving Kitchen is real and immediate, and GK’s team is highly skilled at quickly offering the correct resources to make a lasting difference in thousands of food service workers’ lives.

I believe supporting GK encompasses what the hospitality industry is known for: sincere, caring individuals committed to taking care of our own. The reality is that those who contribute to this cause get far more out of it than those receiving support.

My wife Lindi and I have developed a very deep and personal relationship with the entire GK community. Their work, passion, humility and commitment to serve is an inspiration for my entire family. It is quite simply the most important work of my career!
