For the ninth year in a row, UM România has dedicated its global Impact Day to Asociația Șansa Ta, reaffirming its commitment to community support. This initiative, celebrated simultaneously in UM offices worldwide, is a cornerstone of the organization’s culture.
This year, the UM team returned to support the Social Canteen of Asociația Șansa Ta for the second time. The canteen plays a vital role in providing up to 1,000 hot meals a day for vulnerable individuals, including the elderly and families facing economic and medical hardships.
In addition to meals, the center offers social counseling and support for reintegration, combating exclusion, and developing the skills necessary for independent living. I. Nedelcu, a representative and social worker from Asociația Șansa Ta, emphasized that the presence of eager volunteers brings renewed hope to the community.
Victor Croitoru, Managing Director of UM România, expressed his enthusiasm, stating that returning to the social canteen reflects the organization's ongoing commitment to social responsibility. Anca Popescu, director of the Impact Day program within UM România, shared her personal joy, calling it the event that brings her the greatest happiness each year.
Susan Kingston-Brown, Global CEO of UM Worldwide, highlighted the significance of Impact Day, describing it as a milestone on the UM calendar that fills her with pride in leading the organization. With over 3,000 employees and a strong portfolio of renowned global clients like American Express and Levi's, UM România continues to make a positive impact both locally and globally.
