Aoba Food Drive Operation (finished)

We donated 305 items (97.5 kg), including retort foods, instant meals and beverages, to the Aoba Ward Japan National Council of Social Welfare. Thank you very much for your cooperation!

Food drive is an activity to bring unused foods that cannot be used up in each household and collectively donate them to food bank organizations and local welfare facilities and organizations, and is one of the efforts to reduce food loss. .
Foods provided during the Aoba Food Drive Strategy will be donated mainly to those who need food and local welfare organizations through the Aoba Ward Japan National Council of Social Welfare.
