Hungarian Food Bank Association

The Hungarian Food Bank Association is a non-profit organization that works to make a link between surplus food and people in need in Hungary in order to help reduce poverty, hunger and malnutrition. We work nationwide with 400 partner organizations to reach 300.000 people in need. Our core activities include: 1. Collect food from traders eg. Tesco, Auchan (express distribution of surplus food from supermarkets ) 2. collect food from companies, manufacturers (non-profit wholesale) We can save surplus food from 4 commercial chains and from manufacturers (cca 80 parties currently). Our core activities include: 1. Collect food from traders eg. Tesco, Auchan (express distribution of surplus food from supermarkets ) 2. collect food from companies, manufacturers (non-profit wholesale) Express distribution of surplus food from supermarkets There are situations when we do not even have time to transport the products into our warehouse to distribute them to our partner organisations from there. Such is products donated by food stores whose sell by date is that particular day, so we have only a few hours to deliver the products to the people who need them. Our urgent food rescue scheme has been designed for these situations which means that food donations are transported from the retail stores directly by nearby partner organisations. The Food Bank in this scheme is responsible for building contacts, the adequate preparation of organisations involved, the launch of specific retail store projects and process monitoring primarily focusing on the constant control of shipping and distribution administration. The donations include high value food such as fruits, vegetables, meat, dairy and bakery products that people are very happy to receive. Non-profit wholesale The main activity of the Hungarian Food Bank is to seek the edible food that can not be commercialized for some reason, then to organize the transportation, safe storage and distribution of the collected resources. Among the donated food there are aesthetically, e.g. packaging defective products, food products approaching their expiration date, post-season products and other products that are safe for human consumption but the manufacturer or dealer doesn't want to or can not sell it commercially for any reason. These foods often are destroyed. The Hungarian Food Bank's aim is to research the most of these kinds of reserves then to deliver to those in needs. Food Bank doesn't offer direct donations to disadvantaged people, it distributes the collected surplus through charity organizations and governmental institutions which are in daily contact with the needy hereby the Hungarian Food Bank is a non-profit wholesaler" creating a bridge between the organizations that help the needy and the companies possessing and donating food surplus.

At its recent World Congress in Jeju, South Korea, WFD members (136) approved the WFD strategic direction 2023-2030 and Action Plan 2023-2027. Important themes are covered in these 2 documents which strive to ensure that we create access for all deaf people to all ways of life in "a world where deaf people everywhere can sign anywhere" (vision). Furthermore, our mission is to work towards the full realisation of linguistic rights and human rights in all areas of life, with full recognition and implementation of these rights across local, national and international levels. To realise our mission and vision, the following are part of our Action Plan 2023-2027: Building Capacity across the Globe: ensuring increased participation of women, youth and underrepresented communities; provide effective capacity building projects to countries who are not yet members to assist them with creating their own national deaf associations so that they can represent themselves in their countries; Putting Deaf people on the Agenda: the WFD will continue to strive to put deaf human rights at the forefront of all representation internationally, including at the UN; we will effectively promote International Week of Deaf people and be ready to response to deaf people's needs in times of crises, disasters and war. Realising nothing about us without us: the WFD continues to be the leading authority for deaf people and sign languages and has committed to developing resources to assist deaf people raise awareness in their countries. Achieving Sign Language Rights for all: National sign languages are fundamental to achieving deaf people's human rights. We will aim to assist our member states in promoting the legal recognition of signed language in the country and advocate for early childhood language acquisition and inclusive multilingual education policies. Investing in a strong and sustainable organisation: to carry out our mission and vision we need greater investment in our secretariat and regional secretariat, expand our donor base, increase visibility and fundraising activities so that our organisation can carry on its important global work.
