Fundación Banco de Alimentos
We are a non-profit organization that has been working for the past 25 years to reduce hunger, improve nutrition, and prevent food waste.
Our mission is to "help those who suffer from hunger." We do this by receiving donations of food that has left the commercial circuit but is still perfectly fit for consumption, from companies, agricultural producers, and supermarkets. We then distribute this food to social organizations that provide meals on-site to people in need.
Through a network of 1,300 social organizations located in the City of Buenos Aires and the Greater Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area, we help provide food to more than 350,000 people every day.

Our mission is to "Help those who suffer hungry" and we do it by receiving donations of food and products from companies, agricultural producers and supermarkets, which we then distribute among social organizations that feed people in need on the spot.
In this way we collaborate with the feeding of more than 350.000 people per day, reaching them through 1,300 social organizations located in the City of Buenos Aires and 40 parties in the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area.
LESS HUNGER, MORE FUTURE
We seek to be a bridge between those who suffer from hunger and those who wish to collaborate through a transparent and efficient channel that guarantees that their donation will reach thousands of people who are not assured of their food.
Food Bank Model
Fundacion Banco de Alimentos currently distributes approximately 7.000.000 kilos of food every year and has the capacity to sort, store and distribute these foods efficiently. We also have a computerized stock management system that helps us track food expiration dates, volumes and deliveries. The quality of our work and policies has allowed us to certify our quality management system under ISO 9001: 2000. We have recently certified, for the first time, ISO 140001
Food Rescue Program
This is the main program of Fundacion Banco de Alimentos. Through this program we receive and manage food donation and deliver them to those in need. Since its creation in 2001, its growth has been exponential.
