Food for all
Do good while having fun and an enjoyable time!
Let’s celebrate while helping Schweizer Tafel in their mission to diversify its food basket for people in need
For 20 years, the Foundation "Schweizer Tafel" has been distributing free groceries to more than 500 social institutions such as shelters for the homeless, street kitchens, emergency shelters and aid organizations in German and French-speaking Switzerland. The supply chain encompasses mainly from Swiss wholesalers, producers or even retailers who donate their surplus goods to the Schweizer Tafel. Around 16 tons of food come together every day in 12 regions in Switzerland.
The foundation receives surplus food product from retailers that are close to their use-by date. About 90% of these short-dated products consist of fresh produce, such as fruit and vegetables.
The situation has worsened dramatically and therefore extraordinary measures are necessary and a completely new situation for Schweizer Tafel.
To diversify its offer and to be able to deliver a complete range of foodstuffs to the most deprived people, the foundation needs to complete its basket with long-life products such as pasta, rice, oil or canned food (mainly vegetables).
- With CHF 25.00 – you help buying 55 packs* of pasta
- With CHF 50.00 – you help buying 20 liters* of oil
- With CHF 100.00 – you help buying 85 cans* of food
- With CHF 200.00 – you help buying 210 packets* of rice
* Approximate prices subject to market fluctuations
Thanks to your donation, the foundation will be able to buy these useful products from its partners in large quantities and redistribute them to those who need them most.
The aim is for all participants to fundraise for Schweizer Tafel before and during the COO & BRM Summer Event.
