At Felix, we build a unique relationship with our philanthropists, bringing them closer to the impact of their gifts, to our beneficiary partners, and to the organisation itself through regular reporting and exclusive invitations.
Our philanthropists are a diverse group: parents and grandparents, entrepreneurs and those working in established businesses, those who have never given to charity before, and families for whom giving to charity is something that brings them together. What they have in common is a desire to deliver a basic human right – enough good, nutritious food – to those in need.
The Felix Project is London’s largest food redistribution charity. We rescue high quality surplus food that cannot be sold and would otherwise go to waste. It is then distributed to over 1,200 community organisations and schools across London that are helping to feed people experiencing hunger.
Last year, we gave out the equivalent of 38 million meals across London. 50% of our rescued food is delivered to community organisations within the top 5 most deprived neighbourhoods in the capital.
Find out more about The Felix Project’s work stopping waste and fighting hunger in our 2024 Impact Report.
