FoodCloud: tackling waste, food poverty and restoring community spirit through shared food!
Join us to find out how you can create positive change in your community!
FoodCloud is a new initiative which matches businesses with surplus food, to charities who can redistribute it to people in their local communities who would otherwise go without.
Join us for the official launch of FoodCloud to find out how you can get involved!
Date: Wednesday 22 October
Time: 11:00 am- 12:00 noon
Venue: City Church, 2-12 University Avenue, Belfast
How Does FoodCloud Work?
Via an app or webpage, businesses can post details of surplus food available, which sends a text message to charities in that area alerting them to the donation. Charities can accept the food by replying to the text message and arrange a collection within a specified time period.
FoodCloud provides the opportunity for businesses and charities to work together to solve the social and environmental problems associated with food waste and food poverty. It enables food businesses to contribute to their communities in a meaningful and practical way, reduce the cost of waste disposal and reduce their impact on the environment. It also reduces food costs of charitable organisations, allowing them to enhance their service offering.
