問題詳情

        A new food bank was just opened recently in Taichung. People in financial difficulties cango there to pick up relief products, and like going to a supermarket, they can get what theyneed, free of charge and with dignity. In all food banks, items are donated by businesses, with asmall number of products, such as diapers and vitamins, purchased with subsidies from the citygovernment. One important goal of the food banks is to reduce the waste of resources whilegiving away food and other daily necessities to those in need. Most food banks often hand outfood packs without giving recipients a choice of the items. In that way, products still go to wasteif the recipients are unable to use them. Moreover, the food packs do not contain milk powder ordiapers to meet the needs of infants.

The main beneficiaries of food banks are the people who need a helpinghand to avoid extreme poverty. Regardless of how they work, all food banks share the samegoal: to lift disadvantaged families out of poverty.ˉ
