CHICAGO, July 21,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Cboe Global Markets, Inc. (Cboe:
CBOE), the world's leading derivatives and securities exchange
network, today announced a donation of $100,000 to World Central Kitchen, a nonprofit
focused on being first to the frontlines and providing meals to
people recovering from crises.
The donation to World Central Kitchen is the fourth installment
of Cboe's $500,000 charitable giving
campaign in honor of its 50th anniversary. Each organization was
specifically chosen by Cboe's global associates and exemplifies one
of Cboe's guiding principles. World Central Kitchen was selected to
represent Superior Service for its work in providing meals and
offering hope to those in a time of crisis.
"As an operator of global markets, Cboe is also passionately
committed to supporting the worldwide community and helping those
in need," said Chris Isaacson, Chief
Operating Officer of Cboe Global Markets. "World Central Kitchen is
instrumental in providing food security and hunger relief to those
devastated by humanitarian, climate, and community crises all over
the world. Our associates' choice to support World Central Kitchen
is a testament to the incredible work they do, and we couldn't be
more grateful to contribute to such a vital mission to help the
world, one meal at a time."
Founded by Chef José Andrés, World Central Kitchen acts fast
when disaster strikes in order to start cooking and serving meals
to people in need. The organization partners with a local network
on the ground and looks to serve comforting meals to survivors
quickly and effectively. World Central Kitchen's recent emergency
responses include the invasion of Ukraine, the devastating earthquakes in
Turkey and Syria, and the recent catastrophic flooding in
Vermont.
"We are truly grateful for Cboe's support of World Central
Kitchen," said Maggie Leahy, World
Central Kitchen's Director of Donor Relations. "Our work is powered
by people like the Cboe associates who have chosen to make an
impact in this important anniversary year."
