Nearly a year after the Alpes-Maritimes Food Bank moved into larger premises, its reason for existing remains strong. Its actions are based on generosity, the fight against waste, donation, sharing, volunteering, and sponsorship. The General Council of the Alpes-Maritimes, in solidarity with the most disadvantaged, is mobilizing to support and assist this association.
Nearly a year after the Alpes-Maritimes Food Bank moved into larger premises, its reason for existing remains strong. Its actions are based on generosity, the fight against waste, donation, sharing, volunteering, and sponsorship.
It belongs to the network of 79 Banks of the French Federation of Food Banks, which collect food for free from several supply sources, sort, manage, and store them in their warehouses in compliance with hygiene and food safety regulations, and then share them with a network of associations and CCAS.
The General Council is also committed to other food aid associations such as Secours Populaire, Restos du Cลur, and the Red Cross.
With the national collection days approaching on November 23 and 24, all citizens, especially those in the Alpes-Maritimes who showed great generosity last year by offering 171 tons of food (equivalent to 342,000 meals), are called to mobilize.
