Kroll Bond Rating Agency donates to Vermont Foodbank

Vermont Business Magazine Kroll Bond Rating Agency, Inc (KBRA) has donated $2,500 to the Vermont Foodbank in lieu of conference giveaway items at the Vermont Captive Insurance Association Annual Conference taking place August 8-10. KBRA is a global credit rating agency committed to setting a standard of excellence and integrity. “At KBRA, we take our social responsibility very seriously, not just in our work but in our effort to support our business communities as well. We accomplish this with the assistance of our employees through KBRA Cares, our social responsibility initiative,” said Tina Bukow, senior director in KBRA’s business development group.

Vermont Foodbank is the state’s largest hunger-relief organization, serving Vermont through a network of food shelves, meal sites, schools, hospitals, and housing sites. In FY2016, the Vermont Foodbank distributed more than 12 million pounds of food to 153,100 Vermonters. The Vermont Foodbank, a member of Feeding America, is nationally recognized as one of the most effective and efficient nonprofits and food banks in the nation.

“We are thrilled that Kroll Bond Rating Agency is taking this opportunity to support our community,” said John Sayles, Vermont Foodbank CEO. “Instead of spending this money on conference swag items, they have chosen to prioritize taking a stand against hunger. Thanks to KBRA, the Vermont Foodbank can further work to make Burlington’s vibrant community a place where all our neighbors can thrive.”
