Good Food Belongs on Tables, Not in Landfills

By Ieva Patejunaite | Fundraising coordinator

Dear Friends,

Every day, good food is at risk of being wasted while many people continue to struggle to afford regular meals. Thanks to your support, we are helping bridge that gap.

Throughout the year, our teams and volunteers have continued rescuing surplus food from retailers, producers, and other partners across Lithuania. Food that might otherwise have ended up in landfills is instead reaching people who need it most.

This work creates a double impact. It helps families, seniors, and individuals facing financial difficulties, while also reducing the environmental burden caused by food waste. Every crate of rescued vegetables, every box of dairy products, and every loaf of bread delivered represents resources saved and lives supported.

What makes this possible is a community of people who believe that good food should never go to waste. Whether through donations, volunteering, or spreading the word about our mission, every contribution helps create meaningful change.

Thank you for being part of this effort. Together, we are proving that food can have a second life—and that a simple act of sharing can make a lasting difference.

With gratitude,

The "Maisto Bankas" Team
