We’re always looking for ways we can make a meaningful contribution to environmental sustainability and the communities in which we live and work. Through our support of OzHarvest, we will help feed 150,000 Australians in need through over 1,500 charities across Australia.
Every day, OzHarvest visits 2,610 food donors and rescues food that would otherwise end up in landfill.
Food for thought
In 2023, 3.7 million households in Australia struggled to put food on the table, with the rising cost of living is the number one reason people are struggling. In Australia, 7.6 million tonnes of food is wasted every year, destroying our environment and costing the economy $36.6 billion annually. (*OzHarvest).
The OzHarvest goal
OzHarvest redirect food that would end up in landfill, to a range of charities that help feed people in need. Their goal is to halve food waste by 2030, through feeding, educating, and advocating. Watch this video to find out more.
Saving our planet
Food rescue prevents the embedded carbon emissions from food production from being wasted and avoids the release of methane from food rotting in landfill. For every kilo of food rescued, 1kg of CO2 equivalent is saved from being released into the atmosphere. To learn more about the impact that OzHarvest makes, you can read their 2023 Impact report.
