How can I participate as an individual?

Our volunteers are the most important part of our food waste rescue chain. We rely on 10-12 volunteers per dinner. We have many shifts, from food pickups in the morning, cooking in the afternoon, and serving and cleanup in the evening.​

Stay connected with us by joining our WhatsApp group chat. You'll get updates on shifts available, and in the group description, you'll find more information about how to sign up.

Do you have team/office/school volunteering opportunities?​

How can I help beyond volunteering?

Join Taste’s operational team: Love our mission? Are you looking to have a large voice in the organization and impact? Are you up to grow your skill sets and experience?  Are you able to dedicate between 5 to 10 hours a week for a few months? Then email info@tastebeforeyouwaste.org with your motivation and skills/interests and we can find a match. We have many positions and are also looking for dedicated members. 

Donate Food: If you have food waste in your office, store, following an event or at home, we can try to collectively find opportunities to rescue food.  You can email info@tastebeforeyouwaste.org.  (Please put ‘urgent’ in the subject if the food needs to be rescued within the day.)

Be a Taste hero: Don’t have time to actively participate.  You are still a valuable part of the food waste rescue chain by simply joining as a guest at our events. Follow us on Instagram, Facebook and Patreon for all our events and tell your friends and community about us.   

Be a Food Hero: We can all make a large impact by being mindful of our own practices in our private and personal lives. Choose sustainable practices and lifestyle. Be an advocate for positive changes in your community.  

Donate Cash: Your cash donation allows us to remain donation based, and provide a meal to members of the community that can’t afford a meal.  Any surplus of funds will be reinvested back into the community and growing our impact.
