FoodForward SA sets goal to feed 1 million people daily for 5 years
JOHANNESBURG - Celebrating its 10-year anniversary, South Africa’s largest food redistribution organisation, FoodForward SA, has set itself a goal of reaching one million people daily within five years as part of its vision of "a South Africa without hunger".
"Scaling up to meet the growth challenge will involve increasing the amount of surplus food we are able to recover as well as increasing the number of beneficiary organisations we serve, while ensuring that the organisation’s infrastructure capacity is adequately expanded to accommodate this ambitious goal," FoodForward said in a statement.
It costs just 90c for FoodForward SA to distribute a meal’s worth of food. That means that for only R50, two people can eat every day for a month.
