HKUST Bread Run 惜食.麵包收集活動
Queenie Choi (queenie.choi@ust.hk)


Every day, while one million people still live in poverty struggling to afford nutritious meals, 3,600 tonnes of food waste are sent to landfills in Hong Kong. Feeding Hong Kong (FHK) is a food banking initiative intended to fill this gap. In Bread Run, volunteers will collect surplus fresh bread from bakeries across Hong Kong and bring them to the food bank. All donations are distributed by the Feeding Hong Kong charity network the following morning to non-profit programs that provide food to those in need.
本地食物銀行樂餉社現招募義工於各區麵包店關門時收集剩餘麵包,隨即送到食物銀行妥善分類及儲存,並於翌日早上轉送至慈善機構分配給有需要的人士以解決饑餓問題,同時減少食物浪費。
