Description
At Food for People, College Corps fellows Petrita and Casandra are currently developing a community based project to reduce food waste. They are working closely with Food for People to design this program and are in the process of reaching out to prospective community partners who could help pick up excess food. This project matters because food banks often struggle with large amounts of food that is no longer eligible for human consumption, which can lead to environmental waste. This initiative aims to address that by promoting composting and building a more supportive network through future collaboration with local organizations and community members to help reduce food waste.
