Carmistin, one of Romania's leading food producers, organised on Friday, 31 March 2023, the School Meals Day. <\/em><\/strong>The action was dedicated, in a first stage, to children from rural areas, namely pupils from villages Tomsani <\/strong>and Fole\u0219tii de Sus<\/strong>, from Valcea county and students from the villages Bolboasa, B\u0103l\u0103ce\u0219ti, Bolbo\u0219i and Valea<\/strong>from Gorj county. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

campaign School Meals Day<\/em><\/strong> consists of the distribution of packages of hot food, prepared from the product portfolio The Province<\/em><\/strong>, a brand of the Carmistin Group. In addition to food, the children also receive a set of school supplies from the company. The School Meals Day campaign is an initiative through which the Carmistine Group aims to become increasingly involved in the life of the local communities in which it operates, thus contributing to the cultivation of the common good in society through caring for others and, above all, caring for children. We will gradually extend this campaign to other localities where we are active, <\/em><\/strong>said Cristina Popa, Deputy General Manager Carmistin.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

School Meals Day started today in our school and it is a joy for us to have been selected for this campaign, which aims to educate children for healthy eating, as La Provincia is a local producer of healthy products. Our students were very happy to receive a hot meal and school supplies,<\/em><\/strong> Tudor Liviu Bogdan, teacher at Tom\u0219ani Secondary School.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supporting communities, by carrying out specific social support actions, is a constant concern at the company level, including in the relationship with employees.In Valcea county, for example, where Carmistin has the largest workforce, the Group has been running a support programme for the children of employees for several years, within an educational centre of the type after-school<\/em>. Around 30 children, aged 5 to 11 years old, carry out their after-school activities in specially designed spaces, being assisted by teachers employed by the company. The children are also provided with meals and transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About the campaign School Meals Day<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Internationally, School Meals Day<\/em> (ISMD), marked annually in March, aims to raise awareness for good nutrition for all children, regardless of their situation and geographical area. Over the past decade, the UK and the US have shared examples of policy and best practice in promoting healthy eating and the importance of the nutritional quality of school meal programmes, with a focus on the link between healthy eating, education and better learning. Raising awareness of hunger and poverty issues is also an important component of the global campaign. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
