The world produces more than enough food to feed everyone, yet up to 783 million people across the globe don’t have reliable access to the food they need. In fact, nearly one-third of food is lost or wasted globally every year, ultimately producing up to 10% of greenhouse gas emissions.
That’s where locally led food banks come in! By recovering wholesome food from farms to manufacturers to retailers and more, food banks connect millions of people with the food they need while mitigating harmful greenhouse gas emissions.
In honor of International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste (September 29), [Company Name] is raising funds for The Global FoodBanking Network to support local food banks in nearly 50 countries, connect more people with critical food, and reduce food waste around the world.
