This generous donation from the £1m funding for the nationwide Covid-19 response initiative, will provide food to over 350 front line charities.
People in our city go hungry every day, while good surplus food goes to waste. This £10,000 donation from the Freemasons rescues enough surplus food for the equivalent of 55,000 meals for people in need. The Felix Project is thankful to London Masons for helping us reduce food waste and hunger in London.”
Mark Curtin, CEO of The Felix Project
“We are glad to provide urgent support to the Felix Project, no one should have to worry where their next meal is coming from. With foodbanks across the UK being used more than ever before, the crisis has put untold pressure on this vital network. This grant follows on from a recent £2.5 Million to fund two ultra-high aerial platforms, 6 rapid response vehicles and 4 bariatric stretchers and earlier generous donations of £3 million to Bart’s hospital for the purchase of a Cyberknife and £2 million donation towards the second London Air Ambulance, all of which contribute to saving lives right across this great capital city.”
Tony Shields, London Masons Charity Steward
