Food drive

Last update date December 22, 2023

Are there any foods that you got from your middle age but do not eat, or foods that you bought a lot but cannot eat?
If left as it is, the expiration date will pass and you will throw it away without being eaten.
Yokohama City recommends food drives for foods that are originally eaten but discarded, so-called "food loss."
Food drive is an activity that uses food that is not eaten at home to support people who need food, such as single-parent homes, children's cafeterias, and other welfare facilities.
The food you receive will be used for welfare through the Izumi Ward Japan National Council of Social Welfare.
We look forward to your cooperation with "Mottainai" as "Thank you".
