On the 16th of October is World Food Day – an annual day of action against hunger. Every year on that day, people around the world come together for a common cause: to contribute to the eradication of hunger.
Based on FAO’s research, 805 million people, and one in nine worldwide, live with chronic hunger. 60% of these are women, while almost five million children under the age of five die of malnutrition-related causes every year. In honor of this day, food ordering app foodpanda.pk launches “You Say. We Give”, a week-long campaign to encourage collective efforts and be part of this global movement.
From the 16th to the 22th of October foodpanda will be collecting its customers’ wishes. One can choose between 5 stock food items (rice, pasta,daal, potatoes and flour) simply by commenting on the Facebook post. foodpanda will donate 1kg of that on his/her behalf at a local food bank. If the post is shared, foodpanda will double the donation. So, the more people speak, the more foodpanda gives.
To participate, anyone can go to this page to pick one of the donation items, learn more about the 5 food items and the local food bank the food will go to, as well as to witness the donation counter in real time.
