Bringing Treats & Supporting Communities Where We Live and Work

Bringing Treats & Supporting Communities Where We Live and Work

July 14, 2020
At Ferrero, we strive to live our motto: “work, create, donate,” conceived by our founder, Mr. Michele Ferrero at the very beginning of his career. It’s especially important during challenging times and over these past several months, Ferrero North America has put that motto into practice.

We want to thank our Ferrero colleagues throughout North America who have been dedicated to producing quality Ferrero products so that we can bring a little comfort and joy to our customers and local communities. Throughout COVID-19, we’ve been able to give back in numerous ways, not only by providing treats but also in donating essential PPE during critical times.

As part of our commitment to the community, we have donated gloves and masks to hospitals and health care facilities in Ontario, metropolitan New York/New Jersey and Chicago. We know at hard times treats can spread a little happiness and we are proud to be able to contribute to that by donating our products to over 70 charities, hospitals, food banks, first responders and partners in our local communities. In cooperation with Ferrero Group, we will also be providing assistance to hospitals and other critical care services in Illinois, New Jersey, New York, and Ohio, and to food banks in Ontario. In recognition of our Italian heritage, we have also supported non-profit organizations that provided help to the beleaguered hospitals and hospital workers in Italy.

The whole Ferrero Group is constantly engaged in social responsibility activities, as an integral part of our own way of being and of operating, strengthening ties with the local communities in which we operate. We gladly carry on this tradition today by helping our broader “family of communities” throughout Canada, the Caribbean and the United States. In this way, we can provide a little joy, a little comfort and a little support to people who, like us, are committed to the “ethics of doing.” In this way, we are all proud Ferrerians.
