CyrusOne Donates $250,000 for Food Assistance in the United States, United Kingdom, and Germany

Donations for Feeding America®, the North Texas Foodbank and European Charities Will Provide Millions of Meals to People in Need

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In response to the economic and community challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, CyrusOne Inc. (NASDAQ: CONE), a premier global data center real estate investment trust (REIT), on behalf of all its employees, is donating $250,000 in addition to personal donations from CyrusOne’s leadership team, and a $50,000 personal donation from CyrusOne’s President and CEO, Tesh Durvasula, to Feeding America®, Member Food Bank, the North Texas Foodbank, as well as charities in Europe. The donations will help fund millions of meals for people in need.

According to the USDA, more than 37 million people, 11 million of whom are children, face hunger in the United States. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an increased demand for local food banks. School closures, rising unemployment, and rising poverty due to quarantine and stay-at-home orders will disproportionately impact people already at risk of hunger and could result in an estimated additional 17.1 million people experiencing food insecurity.

“In this unprecedented moment, we all need to come together across the world to help people in need. Our donation, on behalf of all CyrusOne team members, helps provide food and resources at a time of intense hardship. I am so proud of how passionately our CyrusOne family in the United States and Europe have responded to help our local communities in Texas and around the world,” said Tesh Durvasula, CEO and President, at CyrusOne.

“Feeding America is thankful to CyrusOne for its commitment to helping our neighbors who may not know where they will find their next meal. Their generous donation will help people hardest hit by this pandemic,” said Lauren Biedron, Vice President of Corporate Partnerships at Feeding America.
