Dedicated to Making a Difference
UFPC embraces community involvement programs with the same focus, strategy and responsiveness that are displayed in our role as exclusive supply chain management organization for Yum! Brands, Inc. For several years we have demonstrated passion and commitment to social responsibility for programs such as Brooklawn Child and Family Services, the American Red Cross, Fund for the Arts, United Way and Making Strides (Hats for Hope).
UFPC team members have been active in fundraising efforts to support community wide health- and wellness-related campaigns, as well as the health and well being of team members. In 2009, UFPC participated in the Mayor’s Healthy Hometown Movement, a UFPC version of the Biggest Loser competition and a community health fair. We organized an on-site walk, “March for Men,” as a fundraising event and awareness campaign for men’s health issues.
Hunger is an ongoing battle for humanity, and UFPC embraces activities that are designed to alleviate hunger in our community. Since 2008, team members have helped sort and pack food, and have supported the National Association of Letter Carriers food drive.
UFPC has demonstrated a particular passion for programs that benefit children and families. Since 2004, we have organized an annual fall party for boys who are residents at Brooklawn. Games, pizza and ice cream make a fun time for all, including UFPC team members. UFPC supports Brooklawn’s Christmas through Angel Tree adoptions, wrapping Christmas gifts, and stuffing stockings. We have also provided “Santa” as an extra attraction at their Christmas party. Over the years, UFPC has provided other support as needed, including school supply drives, book readings and remembering the boys with birthday cards. In October 2009, UFPC provided a large contingent of volunteers for Brookawn’s “Concours d'Elegance” car show fundraiser.
