KFC Dominica’s Harvest Program 2023: Partnering with Chances to Combat Food Waste and Hunger
KFC Dominica has announced an impactful partnership with Chances: No Waste. No Hunger. Drive, reflecting the values of sustainability, compassion, and community that the restaurant deeply values. This collaboration comes amid global concerns of food waste and hunger.
KFC Harvest, a global initiative launched over two decades ago to combat world hunger, has joined forces with Chances, a Children’s Home for the Abandoned, Abused, Neglected, Cheated, and Emotionally Scarred. KFC’s prepared food donations, known as Harvest, began in 1999 to address hunger issues. The company’s commitment to ending hunger has prompted their partnership with Chances and the donation of unsold food to shelters, including Grotto Home for the Homeless and Chances.
This collaboration aims to bring a positive impact to the local community and contribute to the fight against hunger and waste.
Marketing Specialist Marsha Augustine shared that “This partnership is more than a collaboration; it’s a commitment to effecting real change. Together with Chances, we will work tirelessly to minimize food waste while maximizing efforts to alleviate hunger within our communities. Our shared vision is rooted in the belief that no edible food should go to waste, and no individual should go to bed hungry.’
Through this initiative, KFC Harvest will implement innovative strategies to reduce food waste across our operations, from sourcing to preparation. Excess food will find its way to those who need it most, thanks to Chances well-established distribution and support to the children whom they have the honor to provide guardianship to.
KFC opened officially under Fine Foods Inc on August 13th 2006 in Roseau, Dominica. The restuarant has built a foundation on always providing high-quality products at a reasonable cost, developing our human resources so that team members choose to remain with us to support our growth and be good corporate citizen by supporting both national and community projects. KFC will celebrate 17 years of operations in Dominica, on August 13th, 2023.
