Helping to provide 40,000 meals this Winter.
15th December 2023
Employee owned Loadhog, has partnered up with FareShare Yorkshire to helped provide 40,000 meals to those in need this winter.
FareShare believe that no good food should go to waste. They redistribute surplus food to charities that turn it into meals for their local communities. In 2022 and 2023, FareShare served 8,500 local charities, redistributed 54,000 tonnes of food and support over 1 million people in need.
When Loadhog found out about FareShare, they dived straight into helping out where ever they could, whether this be providing dollies and containers to help move produce around, or transporting stock to and from sites.
17 tonnes of surplus food was collected by Loadhog and taken to FareShare’s distribution centre in Leeds. This will be divided up across hundreds of charities who will then distribute to their community.
Supporting causes like this fits perfectly with Loadhog’s core values. The Loadhog Foundation was formed in 2021 to provide funding and support to other charitable organisations and good causes. Loadhog encourages their Foundation by giving 1% of its budgeted pre-tax net profits every year, going towards supporting local, national and international charities. Every employee is encouraged to take time off work to support and volunteer with projects that they believe in.
