One billion PLN returns to the state budget every year because people ignore one field in their tax form. Your 1.5% can feed someone in Malopolska. Or it can simply disappear.

Copy

Every year, taxpayers submit their returns and ignore the 1.5% field. Money that could help people goes back to the general budget as if it never existed.

For 29 years, we have been rescuing something else from being wasted: food. Every day we collect unsold products from stores and producers. Every day we deliver them to people who would otherwise go hungry. Now we ask for one thing: do not waste your 1.5%.

Our Mission

We rescue food
from waste

Every day we collect food from stores and producers. We operate systemically, fast, and effectively.

Help Goal

We deliver it

Rescued products go to 188 organizations in Malopolska: soup kitchens, shelters, and children's homes.

Your 1.5% funds delivery fuel, cold storage electricity, and logistics. We turn money into tons of food.

Frequently asked questions

Does donating 1.5% cost me anything?
No. Your tax stays exactly the same - you do not pay anything extra. The 1.5% is a part of tax you already pay. You only decide whether it goes to the general budget or to a selected organization.
How much money will the Food Bank receive from my 1.5%?
It depends on your tax amount. If you pay PLN 5,000 in annual tax, your 1.5% is PLN 75. For someone paying PLN 10,000, it is PLN 150. Every amount matters and converts into real kilograms of food.
Until when can I donate 1.5%?
Until the end of the annual tax return deadline - usually April 30. It is worth doing it earlier so you do not forget this opportunity to help.
What does the Food Bank do with this money?
We fund food transport, warehouse and cold storage operations, and food collection campaigns. Thanks to these funds, we can collect food from donors and pass it to partner organizations.
