Matt Turner, CEO of Gourmet Society, explained why they chose Action Against Hunger.
He said: “We wanted to help support an internationally recognised charity and we
were attracted to Action Against Hunger’s holistic approach in delivering longer
term solutions, by enabling people to provide for themselves and build prosperous
communities. The team here at Gourmet Society is keen to help make a difference 
to the lives of children who aren’t as fortunate as ours, and this is why we decided
to support them as our chosen charity.”
