Too Good To Go and Greater Chicago Food Depository partnership announcement.Support The Greater Chicago Food Depository
Following our recent Midwest launch, we’re proud to announce our partnership with Greater Chicago Food Depository, the food bank serving Chicago and all of Cook County. This partnership will allow Too Good To Go users to make monetary donations to the Food Depository directly through the app, which will support the nonprofit in providing food and hope to hundreds of thousands of individuals and families across Chicago and Cook County.
Together with this wonderful food rescue organization, our goal is to help create a more nourished, sustainable world. Through this new app feature, Chicagoans can take action against food insecurity and climate change as easily as:
1) Reserving a Surprise Bag pick-up (saving one meal is equivalent to the CO2e of fully charging a smartphone 422 times) and
2) Clicking “Donate” on the app’s homepage to support the Food Depository (donating $1 provides enough food for three meals). This is an easy, tangible way for Chicagoans to make a difference in reducing food waste and ensuring that surplus food can be repurposed for those facing food insecurity.
If you’re in the Chicago area and would like to be further involved, The Greater Chicago Food Depository is seeking volunteers to help with their COVID-19 response. Learn more about how you can make a difference with volunteer opportunities at: https://www.chicagosfoodbank.org/volunteer/
