Our Commitment

Sharing Our Success

No matter how busy he was with his company and his family, Sargento founder Leonard Gentine always made time to give back to his community. Today, Sargento carries on our tradition of Community Outreach that Leonard held so dear. It is a tradition we vow never to change.

Leonard taught the Sargento Family that we have an obligation to do what is right rather than what’s right for the moment. Today, our company’s unique culture encourages and facilitates Community Outreach – both corporately and individually. We are very proud of our ability to help the community and particularly proud of our employees, who put heart and muscle into helping us reach out to others.

Our company philanthropy focuses on hunger relief, housing and education. We understand that helping to meet these basic needs makes families and communities thrive. Sargento gives generously to these causes because our founder believed in sharing our company’s success with our community neighbors who we consider part of the Sargento Family.

We believe real food builds stronger communities. That’s why we’ve donated millions of dollars to fight hunger and food insecurity through our partnerships with the Green Bay Packers and the Milwaukee Brewers. We’ve also donated millions of pounds of cheese to local and national food banks.
