Cargill has added an additional $150,000 to expand the Nourishing the Future project in four nations in Central America. The program has operated for ten years in Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica and Nicaragua in conjunction with local partners.
Xavier Vargas president of Cargill Central America noted, “Cargill, today more than ever, reaffirms its commitment to nourish our communities, that is why we are working together with partner organizations, such as CARE International, to address the food security invulnerable communities. He added, “The $150,000 is additional to the more than $3 million contributed for the execution of the Phase IV of the Nourishing the Future Project.”
Cargill has donated 454 tons of food to local communities where it operates in Central America.
