Each year, FoodFilled's impact has continued to grow. We have helped improve the lives of over 500,000+ Victorians, and now providing over 30,000 meals every month from 15,000+ kilos of edible food rescued.
Currently, we work with charities supporting youth in crisis, families in need, asylum seekers, the homeless, people escaping abusive environments, and residing in rehabilitation centres, as well as the elderly and vulnerable.
We're also just getting started... We have big aspirations for the future and plan to continue to grow rapidly and expand our reach, charity relationships and retail partnerships.
At FoodFilled, we are committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse community where everyone feels valued, respected and empowered.

FoodFilled began with a group of friends delivering small food packages to local charities to reduce food waste
FoodFilled was registered as a not-for-profit organisation.
June 2020
“Seeing bins overflowing with perfectly good food in our own community made one thing clear: something had to change - and that commitment now drives our mission to reduce food waste and support those experiencing hunger across Australia.”
In Australia, 1 in 3 households face food insecurity, while 1.3 billion tonnes of edible food is wasted each year.
FoodFilled is backed by hundreds of dedicated volunteers, predominantly school and university students.
