Growing a Fair Food Movement

Food Fairness Illawarra connects together community members, organisations and local businesses to share & amplify the Illawarra's fair food conversation.

Who we are

Feeding people

We are fortunate to have a food relief and rescue sector that collectively rescue a vast amount of food to feed the increasing number of people in need. This work has an enormous impact and is often accomplished on a shoestring budget, with the support of exceptional volunteers.

Tackling Food Waste

Did you know that tons of perfectly good food meant for people ends up in landfills? A direct way for supermarkets, grocery stores, catering services, and other food businesses to make a difference is to donate surplus food to local food relief agencies in our region!
