The REFOOD MOVEMENT was recognized for the first time one day before completing six-months of activity. Since then, we have been honored at least once every year. We are grateful for the consideration and support bestowed.
Recognition and support are fundamental as we advance our mission, but our most important recognition is in the daily interactions between volunteers, beneficiaries and partners where we witness the transformations that our shared work promotes and facilitates.
