Sodexo Philippines Received the Prestigious GEEIS-SDG Trophy for SheWorks Program
Sodexo Philippines has been awarded the prestigious Gender Equality European and International Standard (GEEIS - SDG Trophy), honoring the transformative impact of our SheWorks program in the slums of Tondo, Manila.
The GEEIS-SDG Awards, organized by the Gender Equality European & International Standard (GEEIS) and Arborus, were held in Paris in June 2025.

From a One-Day Initiative to a Life-Changing Journey
What began as a one-day job shadowing program has evolved into a six-month transformational journey that empowers young people living in extreme poverty. Through our partnership with Life Project 4 Youth (LP4Y), participants gain essential life skills, professional training, and access to career pathways—opening doors to brighter futures.
Impact in Numbers

More Than Numbers—Real Lives Transformed
Behind these figures are inspiring stories of young men and women now thriving as part of Sodexo teams—financially independent, supporting their families, and serving as role models in their communities.
Power of Collaboration
This recognition reflects the strength of cross-sector collaboration with LP4Y and the Stop Hunger Foundation. Together, we have seen firsthand that when you unlock human potential, you ignite systemic change—paving the way for sustainable progress and stronger communities.
