Has it happened to you too?
It happens in every company that a product expires or becomes obsolete. But what happens if this means not just a few cartons of yogurt, but tons – day after day?
We throw away more than 500 million kg of edible food annually in Hungary. That’s as much as if we were packing food all the way from Budapest to Debrecen.
This is not just waste – it is an opportunity for thousands of people not to go to bed hungry.

What do we lose when we throw away food?
When food goes to waste, we don't just throw away leftovers.
We also lose water, land, energy, work hours and valuable resources – unnecessarily.
Moreover, all of this also worsens climate change.
We unnecessarily occupy agricultural land due to discarded food.

Caring for Earth
and each other
Food rescue protects the environment and helps those in need at the same time. Every saved meal means less waste, a smaller ecological footprint, and more warm food for those who need it most.
So a single good deed has a double effect: creating a greener planet and a more humane world.
You donate food, we multiply its value by 30x!
From every 1 Ft of donations, 30 Ft of help will be provided (through value appreciation and food rescue)
For example: 1 meal = 2000 Ft value which is 1 day of food, we multiply this offer by 30x and can distribute 29 additional meals.
