Over 850 million people go to bedhungry in all corners of the globe. More people die from hunger each yearthan
from war, turberculosis and AIDS combined. In fact, every five seconds, achild somewhere dies from hunger.
These are sobering statistics. While our restaurants already donate $50 million of prepared food to the under-
privileged in the UnitedStates, we wanted to do even more. We view this as our privilege, and responsibility.
So in 2007,welaunched the world’s most ambitious hunger relief effort in support of the United Nations World
Food Programme (WFP).Our aim was to raise awareness, volunteerism and funds to feedthe hungry across
the globe. I’m extraordinarily proudofour employees, franchiseesand customers, who, together with the YUM
Foundation, donated $16million to help solve hunger.This helped more than 1.2 million people move From Hunger
To Hope. Jonathan Blum, Senior Vice President, Chief Public Affairs Officer, Yum! Brands, Inc.
