ASSE organizes a charity run to combat food insecurity among students
As part of its “Vert l'Avenir” CSR initiative, AS Saint-Étienne has joined forces with Délivraide, an association committed to combating student poverty, to support the people of Saint-Étienne by providing food kits.
AS Saint-Étienne is taking action against food insecurity by responding to the Professional Football League's call for solidarity with students in precarious situations, around the 8th day of Ligue 1 McDonald's and the 10th day of Ligue 2 BKT.
Firstly, by raising awareness on its social media channels and at Geoffroy-Guichard stadium in Délivraide, which, thanks to its digital platform and mobile app, is combating food insecurity by distributing free food and hygiene kits directly to students' homes.
Enjoy complimentary refreshments and music after the run at Six Nations on Place Jean-Jaurès.
Please note that places are limited, so advance registration is required.
Lionel Potillon, CSR representative for AS Saint-Étienne: "Due to a lack of resources, more than one in three students say they sometimes skip meals, and more than one in four say they have considered dropping out of school. As they are the future of our society, this situation affects their mental health and, more broadly, their future. AS Saint-Étienne calls on the generosity of its supporters and is very grateful to the Casino Group, a committed partner, for making the daily lives of students in Saint-Étienne more peaceful."
Melek Figuet, Director of Engagement and Partnerships at the Casino Group: "The Casino Group is deeply committed to its region and its young people. By supporting Délivraide alongside AS Saint-Étienne, we are reaffirming our commitment to combating food insecurity and creating social ties, which is at the heart of our responsible business approach."
