Feeding Hong Kong is a Hong Kong registered charity established in 2011. Their mission is to fight hunger in Hong Kong and reduce the amount of quality food that is being sent to our city’s landfills. They also work to raise awareness about poverty, food insecurity and food waste in Hong Kong and promote healthy eating and nutritional education to the most vulnerable groups in our community. They are Hong Kong’s sole accredited member of the Global FoodBanking Network, an international organisation dedicated to creating and strengthening food banks and national food bank networks.
