Presentation of the program

The collection point at CC. Minka is
located in the market. There, volunteers
interact with various vendors who run
grocery, vegetable, fruit, meat, and other
types of shops.

Project Objective:
To raise awareness among vendors about
the value of food rescue and to
strengthen the social impact of this
practice through the collection of food
suitable for consumption and support for
beneficiary social organizations.

Raise awareness among vendors about the importance of
food rescue and the positive impact this practice has on
social organizations such as community kitchens,
communal pots, shelters, and other entities that serve
vulnerable populations.
Through the collection of food that is still in good condition,
the goal is to reduce waste and redirect these resources to
those who need them most.
