At Yum! Brands,
we believe in the power
of giving back to the
community to make a
difference in the lives
of our customers and
their families.
We commit ourselves to giving back to the
communities we serve and to making a difference
by financially supporting hundreds of charities
across the globe.
Our efforts are primarily focused on nourishing the
minds, bodies and spirits of people in need. We do
this through unique programs dedicated to hunger
relief, scholarships, reading incentives and
mentoring at-risk teens.
Here’s a brief look at some of our Community Mania:
great
community!
Doing
things for our
Nourishing Minds
Pizza Hut’s BOOK IT!® Program.
For over 20 years, children have
found reading a lot more fun and
rewarding, thanks to the BOOK
IT!®Programs. BOOK IT! is the
largest reading incentive program
in the nation and since 1985,
the company has invested nearly
a half billion dollars in helping
create a passion for reading in
children of all ages.
The Kentucky Fried Chicken
Foundation. KFC Colonel’s
Scholars Program is empower-
ing students to improve their
lives by providing up to $5,000
a year in scholarship awards for
high school seniors. The first
50 scholars were selected in
2006 and the next 50 will be
announced in May 2007.
Nourishing Bodies
YUMeals. Hunger remains a
pressing social issue in Amer-
ica. One in ten children under
the age of five runs the risk of
going to bed hungry every night.
To help address this issue,
Yum! created the world’s largest
prepared food recovery program.
We now donate over 11 million
pounds of prepared food to the
hungry every year.
Nourishing Spirits
Champions for Teens. Partner-
ing with Boys & Girls Clubs of
America, the Taco Bell Founda-
tion impacts more than 1 million
teens a year. Since 1995, Taco
Bell, its franchisees and cus-
tomers have donated over $17
million to help provide teens
with leadership, educational and
career opportunities.
Nourishing People
Around the Globe
China Youth Development
Foundation. KFC China and
CYDF have created a special
scholarship fund to help Chi-
nese students in need with their
college education. KFC also
provides part-time jobs for those
students who wish to support
themselves while in college.
ChildLine. KFC UK supports
many community activities and
charities including ChildLine,
a free, 24-hour help-line for
children facing danger. Trained
volunteers counsel the children
and provide needed support
for those who feel they have
nowhere else to turn.
We Do Society Right Program.
KFC and Pizza Hut Thailand help
build schools and improve the
lives of children in need. Since
2000, they have raised enough
funds to build 10 new elemen-
tary schools and have provided
countless scholarships, books,
clothes and other assistance.
The Millennium Foundation/
Reach. YRI Australia helps raise
money to support critical medi-
cal research. KFC Australia is
also involved heavily with Reach,
an organization working to
reduce youth suicide by provid-
ing peer group support to teens.
And much, much more around
the globe.
