Food recovery brings multiple benefits
**************************************
**************************************
To encourage people to cherish food resources and reduce food waste, the Environment and Conservation Fund (ECF) sponsors non-profit organisations in the recovery of surplus food for distribution to those in need.
Since its start in mid-2014 the ECF has approved 10 projects with funding support of about $15 million.
News.gov.hk recently joined a funded organisation to collect surplus food from a wet market for distribution to the needy.
The story appears on news.gov.hk today (December 6) in both text and video format.
