We are moved every day to give back to the more than 200 communities in which we live and work – including Frito-Lay’s home in the Dallas-area. Through Frito-Lay’s Southern Dallas Thrives initiative, we are working to strengthen all of DFW by helping our Southern Dallas neighbors thrive. We hope that we can be the catalyst for other companies in Dallas to join us to create a lasting impact.
