To commemorate Breakthru’s five-year anniversary, Breakthru said it would donate a total of $100,000 to selected several nonprofits in
alignment with the organization’s Corporate Social Responsibility agenda to create a positive impact in the industry it works, the communities in which it operates and create goodwill amongst its company associates and stakeholders.
In an effort to address food insecurity and childhood hunger across the country, Breakthru has committed $50,000 to No Kid Hungry, a campaign to end childhood hunger in the U.S. Breakthru’s donation can help provide up to 500,000 meals to children in need.
Breakthru will commit an additional $50,000 spread equally across the following organizations:
