Danone U.S.

Following Mother’s Day 💐, we’re recognizing the important role the USDA’s Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) plays in helping income-eligible pregnant and postpartum moms and families access nutritious food and resources. https://lnkd.in/gMgd6GJV At Danone, supporting programs like WIC is one way we bring our mission of bringing health through food to life, and we’ve been proud supporters and advocates of WIC for more than a decade. Many of our nutrient-dense delicious yogurt, soymilk, and baby food options are accessible through the program. 🥛 We’re proud to celebrate moms everywhere—and the programs that help support them and their families year-round. 💙

As a purpose driven company, we are committed to embedding impact throughout our value chain. This quarter, we launched the next phase of our sustainability roadmap, reaffirming our ambition through the Danone Impact Journey Phase Two—guided by three core pillars: health ❤️, nature 🌱, and people & communities 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦.  Our updated and expanded ambitions reflect how we are stepping up our efforts in response to rising health, environmental, and social challenges, while staying true to our mission of bringing health through food to as many people as possible. We’re proud to continue sharing progress through our series, Danone’s Impact in Action, highlighting how our renewed ambition is translating into meaningful action.

We’re back at @communityfoodshareco in Louisville with @nicholasswanson from @urbanfieldpizza in Longmont—shopping just like a neighbor would and turning those everyday ingredients into a healthy, nourishing meal. Each year, Community Food Share distributes more than 11 million meals, with over 70% made up of fresh, nutritious foods like produce, dairy, and proteins. As one of Community Food Share’s largest donors and a partner of nearly 30 years, Danone helped bring this to life in the Danone kitchen, showing how ingredients found in your local food pantry can nourish our community.

As National Nutrition Month closes, we’re wrapping up our nonprofit spotlight series by highlighting our partnership with @foodcorps , a national nonprofit advancing child wellbeing through food in school. 📚  Schools are key places for kids to access nutritious food, and FoodCorps’ work to ensure every child has access to food education and quality food in school 🏫 closely aligns with our mission to bring health through food to as many people as possible.  Through our partnership, we’re supporting hands-on food education in classrooms, sharing family friendly recipes, and supporting school nutrition operators who are leading transformational change in their communities. 🤝  Read our full interview with Morgan McGhee, Director of School Nutrition Leadership at FoodCorps, to learn more about how this nationwide partnership is helping advance food education and nourishing school meals: https://bit.ly/4bCBv5V

March is National Nutrition Month, and we’re spotlighting the nonprofit partners who help advance our mission of bringing health through food to as many people as possible. 🍽📚  We’re kicking off our three‑part series with @feedingwestchester , whose work to nourish neighbors facing hunger closely aligns with how we support access to nutritious foods through our Danone Impact Journey commitments.  Through more than two decades of partnership, Danone’s food donations and ongoing support have contributed to Feeding Westchester’s ability to serve more than 235,000 neighbor visits each month across 175 food pantries and community partners. Together, we’re helping to ensure nutritious food reaches the 39% of Westchester households at risk of hunger. 🥗🤝    Our partnership also expands nutrition education, including a cooking cart that brings hands‑on learning to families both in‑person and virtually. 🍎👩‍🍳  With one of Danone U.S.’s headquarters here in Westchester County, this work is especially meaningful for our local community. 💙 Read the complete interview here: http://bit.ly/4bCBv5V

National Registered Dietitian Day is *technically* tomorrow, but we’re so excited about our RDs we couldn’t wait another day to post this. Registered dietitians play a vital role in helping people navigate nutrition in real life — and collaboration with the RD community, as well as other communities on the frontlines of science-backed nutrition, is essential to our mission of bringing health through food to as many people as possible. 💙 Through ongoing dialogue, we learn from RDs about the questions they’re hearing on the frontlines and share the latest nutrition science and nutrient‑dense foods that help bring evidence to life. These insights shape our approach to flexible eating patterns, GLP‑1 therapies, and diabetes risk reduction. 🥗💡 We saw this partnership in action at FNCE 🔬, connecting with RDs across the U.S. to advance more accessible, enjoyable nourishment. Thank you to the RDs who lead with science, empathy, and impact. 🤝 #rdn #nationalnutritionmonth #rdnday

#DanonePartner I recently spent an incredible few days in Colorado with @danonenorthamerica learning all about protein, probiotics, and the gut–brain connection at their “Unlocking New Frontiers of Protein Science” event 🫶🏾🩵 Did you know plant‑based drinks like @silk Soymilk and NEW Silk Protein provide complete protein and more calcium than dairy? Or that @oikos PRO packs 20g of protein plus yogurt cultures? I was so inspired that as soon as I got back home, I whipped up a protein‑forward breakfast bowl with OIKOS PRO yogurt, walnuts, chia seeds, and fresh berries that helped to keep me feeling full, my gut happy, and my day fueled from the inside out!
