Second Bite
Created by: Do Something
SecondBite is committed to making a positive difference to
people by identifying good quality nutritious food that would
otherwise go to waste. They redistribute this food to over 105 food
relief agencies providing thousands of meals for people in
need.
The food is sourced from a variety of areas across the breadth
of the food chain including growers, wholesalers, retailers and
catering and event companies.
Formally established in 2005, SecondBite was the idea of Ian and
Simone Carson who decided they could no longer watch good food go
to waste whilst people went hungry.
Since then they have delivered enough food to provide more
than 5 million meals to people in need.
The volume sounds impressive, but in reality it is a mere drop
in the ocean, especially when you consider that over 11,500 tonnes
is driven to landfill every month in Victoria, whilst thousands of
families struggle to put a meal on the table.
