Sustainable packaging enterprise BioPak has teamed up with OzHarvest to produce a limited edition compostable Christmas cup, featuring a QR code to encourage donations to the not-for-profit food rescue organisation.
As part of the ongoing partnership, the limited edition compostable cup will be available at participating cafes and businesses across the country, to raise awareness and funds to help feed people in need during the holiday season.
Every five dollars donated via the QR code on the cup allows OzHarvest to deliver ten meals, and stop good food from going to waste. An additional 5 per cent of cup sales will also be donated to OzHarvest.
CEO and founder of OzHarvest, Ronni Kahn AO said, “Christmas is an incredibly difficult time for those struggling to make ends meet, and this year with the rising cost of living, it will be harder than ever. It’s heart-breaking to know that for thousands of families across Australia, – it means going without.”
BioPak CEO Gary Smith touched on the significance of working with OzHarvest community this Christmas. He said, “We are incredibly proud to continue to support OzHarvest and the inspiring work they do.
"For just $5 our customers can help put ten meals on the table to feed Australians in need, making a little bit go a long way this Christmas. We're also proud to be donating 5 per cent of our cup sales to OzHarvest so they can continue delivering additional meals over the course of the year, to some of Australia’s most vulnerable communities."
