BioResource International Partners with the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, NC, January 26, 2011 /Agriculture PR News/ -- BioResource International, Inc. (www.briworldwide.com), a North Carolina agricultural biotechnology company, announced today its continued support of the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle (www.foodshuttle.org) through sponsorship of the 17th Annual Taste of Hope Gala that took place on January 23, 2011. BRI has supported the organization since 2008.
With a passion for feeding the world healthy sustainable food, BRI has focused on harnessing technology to improve people's lives and livelihoods every day. To do this, the company has developed innovative products that improve poultry and swine nutrition in a cost-efficient manner while reducing the environmental impact of those farm operations.
"Being in the global food production industry, I have seen how a sustainable food supply improves the well-being of individuals and communities locally and around the world," says Giles Shih, Ph.D., BRI president. "The practical work that the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle has done to fight hunger locally is a natural fit with our passion for helping farmers produce healthy food."
For 17 years, The Taste of Hope Gala has been the annual signature fundraising event benefitting the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle. The six-course gala dinner was made possible by top local chefs who graciously donate their time and talent to create a food experience beyond any available at a single location in the Triangle.
