At WSC, we have always been engaged with and supported our local communities. This is part of our ethical and social principles, which we try and exemplify every day. This year, as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to cause severe social and financial difficulties for families and businesses across the world, we have directed our charitable efforts to supporting those facing food insecurities. The economic impact of the crisis has left many people around the world on the breadline, having decreased or eliminated their income.
