Making use of surplus food - a presentation in Lewes for the Treasures from T...Paul Corney
I was asked to give this presentation after a screening of The Gleaners & I, a wonderful documentary about how the French allow 'pickers' (gleaners) to collect the surplus after harvests.
Plan Zheroes was invited by the organisers (Trevor Watson & Neil Thompson) who participated in the orginal knowledge cafe I ran in Lewes two years ago.
The Helping Hands Food Bank document summarizes the organization's impact and operations in 2015-2016. It provided nearly $3 million worth of food and resources to over 14,000 individuals in 2015. On average, it distributed food to 711 families per week in 2016. The food bank also provides backpacks with food for over 2,000 students each week. It aims to build a new facility that would serve as a home for self-sufficiency, community health, learning, growth, and nourishment through a community garden. The food bank thanks its board, donors, partners, and volunteers for their support.
The student joined a social group called the "Foodies" where members shared cooking recipes and meals. They decided to merge community engagement with the group by fundraising. Members contributed money to buy donuts to give to donors, raising R800.
The student visited the Emlanjeni Community Centre which provides assistance to children without adequate care. It offers food, literacy skills, and medical services. Some children are orphans cared for by elderly grandparents dependent on pensions.
Playing with the children at the centre was a positive experience, as it allowed students who had not seen siblings in a while to spend time with the children. The children were happy to have undivided attention and fun through activities like soccer.
This document describes a school feeding program started by Rotarians in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to address hunger among school children. The program began providing daily meals to 40 students at Edget Besira School in 2011. With donations from Rotary clubs and individuals, the program now feeds over 100 children daily. The organizers are seeking additional funds to expand the program to feed 200 children for the upcoming school year and lay the foundation for a more just society with fewer hungry children.

The document summarizes a catering business called "Can Do Cater" owned and operated by 7 rural women in Dhardha, Muzaffarpur district, Bihar, India. It was established to empower local women economically by providing them stable employment and an alternative source of income through catering services. The business offers local Bihari cuisine. It targets customers in rural villages and nearby offices. The women received training to learn cooking and business skills. Initial marketing has been a challenge but sales have been decent.

The Avathaar Charitable Trust was established in 2004 to ensure that poor children, elderly people, and widows receive food, medical support, and education. They develop education programs for underprivileged children in remote areas and work with hospitals to provide affordable or free medical care through mobile units. The trust relies on donations to support its mission of helping those in need.
The document discusses issues of food insecurity and environmental racism in Saskatoon, Canada. Neighborhoods populated by indigenous and immigrant groups have limited access to healthy foods due to a lack of grocery stores and an overabundance of fast food options and convenience stores. Community gardens and non-profit organizations are working to improve food security, but more systemic changes are still needed to address the inequities. Teachers and activists are trying to educate youth and empower communities through place-based learning and community development initiatives centered around food.
