Staff, faculty and students at GEM worked with Danone on a humanitarian project to collect food for the Restaurants du Cœur a nationwide association that distributes meals and food to the needy. The food drive took place in three supermarket locations in the community. In each supermarket a Danone manager joined a team of students and staff from GEM - 2 staff members and 5 students per location. Staff who volunteered were able to do so during their working hours.
