How EAT works

A school-based model for rescuing food.

EAT brings rescued fresh produce into schools, where students take part in sorting and packing it, as part of an educational and community experience. The program team coordinates logistics so that schools can focus on learning and participation.

Learning through action

Real activity, guided learning

Students take part in genuine food rescue activities, guided by educators and supported by the EAT team. They don't manage logistics or deliveries on their own; they experience how a real solution works and contribute to it.
