Feed it Forward Incorporated delivers environmental, social, and economic benefits.

From a social perspective, wasting quality surplus food represents a missed opportunity to nourish the people, which is particularly problematic given the number of people experiencing food insecurity globally and in Western Australia.

From an environmental perspective, food waste is food taking up space in landfills and releasing greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. This also includes the supply chain (transportation, manufacturing and packaging etc...)

From an economic perspective, it takes financial resources to produce, process, manufacture, distribute, store, market and buy food. So when food is wasted, people throughout the food system stand to lose economically.

To understand our impact, we do our part to provide vital information about how much surplus food we collect, how many families/people in need this food feeds and how many local businesses and organisations we share food with.
