Hungry Jacks CEO Mr Sharma

Hungry Jack’s Chief Executive Officer Atul Sharma has signed up as one of Australia’s first Conversation Mates to help R U OK? inspire regular, meaningful conversations.

Hungry Jack’s is R U OK?’s Principal Partner and supporting us to inspire more Australians to ask “are you ok?” regularly of family and friends who might be struggling.

In 2014, we're asking everyone to sign up as Conversation Mates and show their commitment to asking the question more regularly.

Mr Sharma said Hungry Jack’s crew and customers can all be part of this campaign and help make a difference.

“We don’t have to have the answers or be experts if our friends need our help. Instead, we can ask them how they’re going on a regular basis and really listen to what they’re going through.

“R U OK?’s goal is to have 23,000 sign up. We want everyone in the community to be part of this effort and help create a more connected and supportive environment,” said Mr Sharma.
