Fighting Hunger, Reducing Waste, Building Solidarity

Since 1986, the European Food Banks Federation (FEBA) has united national food bank organisations across Europe. By recovering surplus food and redistributing it to charities, we fight food insecurity and food waste—every day, for millions of people—through solidarity, professionalism, and a shared commitment to social and environmental impact​.

Contributing to our Circular Food System

In 2024, the European Food Banks Federation (FEBA), in collaboration with 25 Full Members and 5 Associate Members in 30 European countries*, redistributed approximately 834,000 tonnes of food and served approximately 12.2 million people in need.

*This is the aggregation of data reported by FEBA Full Members and Associate Members at the European level. In some countries, such as Estonia, Germany, and the Netherlands, FEBA Members redistribute food not only to other charitable organisations but also directly to end beneficiaries. In the case of Tafel Deutschland e.V., all data refers to 2022, except for co-worker data.
