e ensure the safety and quality of donated foods through a variety of measures. Firstly, we work closely with local food suppliers and grocery stores to receive surplus, unspoiled, and non-expired products. These donations are carefully inspected before being included in our inventory. Additionally, we follow strict health and safety guidelines, such as adhering to proper food handling practices and maintaining clean storage facilities. We also regularly monitor and record the temperature of perishable items to ensure they remain within safe limits. Moreover, we often collaborate with local health departments and rely on trained volunteers to sort and check the quality of donated items. By implementing these precautions, food banks prioritize the well-being and satisfaction of those they serve.
Currently we are working in and around Addis Ababa. But, the implementation our upcoming expansion projects will enable us to cover all regions including Dire Dawa.
