More than 1 million people in the Netherlands live below the poverty line. Did you know that no one needs to go hungry if we give them food surpluses? That is good for people and the environment.
For Selecta and Pelican Rouge Coffee Roasters this is a reason, as in previous years, to donate an extra-large quantity of coffee to the food bank in Dordrecht. This year, we will be donating over 1,250 kilos of coffee, more than 5,000 packs of top-quality ground coffee.
This will enable 400 families to enjoy a delicious cup of coffee for months.
Every week, 400 food parcels are distributed across six distribution points by the food bank Dordrecht, working with 160 volunteers. Someone is eligible for help if you have less than €230 to spend each month on clothes and food.
