Halloween Dress Up × Food Drive Event on Oct.24

日本語版はこちら

October is ”World Food Day Month” and Halloween is coming soon!

Have you ever thrown away edible food?

Now, Food Loss and Waste is an increasingly serious problem worldwide.

In Japan, the government estimates that of the 24.5 million tons of food wasted in fiscal 2017, and food still fit for consumption amounted to 6.12 million tons.
Quote from Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries

On the other hand, many people can’t gain sufficient food and are suffering from serious hunger.
Free The Children Japan (FTCJ) would like to think about these food issues with you,
so we’ll hold the Halloween event “Trash? or Treat? ~ Feast? Waste? ~”

Please come dress-up in Halloween costumes and bring unused food in your home!
