"Hello, grandma! Do you want some leftover bread?" "Thank you, you guys always come by to give out bread, you're so kind!" Small actions, as long as they are persistent, can help many people in need.

Every day, a lot of leftover food is wasted, and you are the most important little helper, delivering still edible food to those in need. We collect leftover bread and lunch boxes in different districts every week. Would you be willing to spend a little time to join us in saving food and helping others?

We sincerely invite you to register as a volunteer. Only when everyone contributes their own strength can our actions continue.
