    Sobre el programa

    In response to the growing need to reduce food waste and support families facing economic hardship in Rome, our Food Rescue volunteer program steps in where surplus meets scarcity. Every day, large retailers and food distributors generate high-quality excess products that would otherwise go to waste. Our volunteers help recover, sort, and redistribute this food, ensuring it reaches local charities and community organizations that support individuals and families in vulnerable situations.

    Through close collaboration with trusted local partners, volunteers actively contribute to transforming surplus into solidarity. By collecting unsold yet perfectly edible food and facilitating its redistribution, they help reduce environmental impact while strengthening community resilience. Food Rescue is more than a logistics effort — it is a tangible act of social responsibility that connects businesses, nonprofits, and citizens in a shared commitment to dignity, sustainability, and collective well-being across Rome.


    What to Expect:

    • Hands-on: label and sort food donation
    • Community impact: Pack meals for families of the communities registered distributed with periodical routine
    • Cultural exchange & collaboration: Work alongside local volunteers in a warehouse to organise and distribute for the families in need.

    Tasks:

    • Sort donations
    • Grocery prep

    Why Join?

    • Make an Impact: Considering the huge amount of food this is an endless chain we do not want to break
    • Gain Experience: Learn more about being part of a team, food conservation, big distribution system
    • Cultural Immersion: Experience life in Rome while making a positive difference.

    Alojamiento

    Volunteers are accommodated in a hostel in the very city center, 15min walking to the main station in Rome, Termini. You can expect to share the dorm with up to three more volunteers of the same gender. Every room has its own bathroom; also you can find common toilets around the hostel. Bedding and towels are provided, and there are shared western bathrooms. Staff will clean the accommodation throughout the week, however volunteers are required to keep their room tidy. 

    The hostel offers a common kitchen on the third floor to warm or prepare some food (not big meals). 

    Wi-Fi covers the entire structure

    The closest pharmacy is 5mins walking distance to the hostel. 

    ATTRACTIONS NEARBY (walking distance)

    Life hack: every first Sunday of the month museums are free (there are some exceptions so please check on the official website of the exposition/museum you want to visit before showing up). 

    Comida y bebida

    We provide 3 meals a day.

    Meals happen outside of the structure. Three mins walking from the hostel there is the affiliated bar where volunteers are guaranteed cornetto and cappuccino from 6.30am to 10.30am. Lunch and Dinner happens 10 mins walking from the hostel in the affiliated restaurant from 12pm to 2pm, and 7pm to 10pm. The restaurant is closed on Sunday. On Sundays dinner can be provided in the same bar as the breakfast. 

    For both, you always have available more than one option, as well as vegetarian/vegan dishes. 

    Tap water is drinkable in Rome  (unless it is specified it is non-drinkable water) and in the accommodation where you can refill your reusable bottle.
