We look for food where it is left and take it where it lacks
This basic premise gives meaning to the existence of the NGO Banco de Alimentos, created in 1998, in São Paulo, by the pioneering initiative of economist Luciana Quintão. Inspired by the idea of ​​reducing food waste in industry and commerce, and distributing the surplus to social institutions, the NGO conducts an Urban Harvest that makes it possible to supplement quality food for more than 20 thousand people, every day.
