Food Rescue Day is an annual celebration initiated by Mac Florendo, the founder of Food Rescue Philippines and the Food Rescue Supervisor of Scholars of Sustenance (SOS) Philippines. Held on January 14 each year, this significant event revolves around the noble cause of rescuing surplus yet perfectly edible food and distributing it to those who are in need.

By focusing on reducing food waste, the day not only promotes environmental consciousness but also combats hunger within the community while curbing carbon emissions.
It's crucial to note that when food is disposed of in landfills, it contributes to the production of Methane—a potent greenhouse gas that surpasses carbon dioxide by over 25 times in its ability to trap heat in the atmosphere.
Take action today and join the movement to rescue food, save lives, and protect our planet. Together, we can make a difference!
