This is our first report of the year on GlobalGiving and we want to start by thanking all the people who like you, have allowed us to get food where it's really needed.
The actions we carry out in the fight against hunger are in favor of many families in the community who have been fortunate to find generosity through your recurring donations, allowing them to continue in their daily activities in their homes.
These have been very difficult years for many people, who in some cases have even lost their home, their sources of income or even loved family members. As a food bank we will always be on the front line in the face of contingencies, supporting families in need with food.
¡Thank you for your help!
We share some important data that we have achieved this year thanks to your contributions.
We deliver 578,000 food parcels to 152,860 people every week. A population served was in percentage to 47% children, 38% adults from 18 to 59 years, 16% adults over 60 years, of this population served 59% are women and 41% are men.
With the contributions they give us we can also avoid the waste of food from self-service stores, supply center, orchards and packing plants
And at the end of the year we collected 16,250,000 kilos of food, of which 59% was perishable food and 41% non-perishable food.
The work we do is great, because the problem of hunger is also great and can only be achieved with the participation of all, forming a more humane and conscious society.
Thank you for your commitment to a brighter future for all. Together, we can reach our bold aspiration.
