With a single click one can choose which food item the food ordering company will donate to a local food bank
On October 16, the World Food Day is celebrated. It's an annual day of action against hunger. Every year on that day, people around the world come together for a common cause - to contribute to the eradication of hunger. It all began in 1945 in Quebec with the creation of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) to raise awareness and engage people in the fight against hunger.
Based on FAO’s research, 805 million people, one in nine worldwide, live with chronic hunger. 60% of these are women, while almost five million children under the age of five die of malnutrition-related causes every year. In honour of this day, food ordering app foodpanda (www.foodpanda.com.bd) launches “You Say. We Give,” a week-long campaign to encourage collective efforts and be part of this global movement.
From October 16 to 22, foodpanda/hellofood will be collecting its customers’ wishes. One can choose between five stock food items (rice, potatoes, pulses or flour) simply by commenting on the Facebook post at facebook.com/FoodpandaBangladesh. Foodpanda will donate 1kg of that on his/her behalf at a local food bank. If the post is shared, foodpanda will double the donation. So, the more people speak, the more foodpanda gives.
To participate, please visit www.foodpanda.com.bd to pick one of the donation items.
With one simple click, foodpanda will donate one kilo of food to a local food bank. Giving has never been so easy. Join the global movement to end one of the most persistent universal challenges. Be part of the solution and make a tangible difference with foodpanda.
