About the event

Volunteers will participate in activities such as cleaning public refrigerators and documenting their impact, providing a tangible contribution to the community's effort to reduce food waste. You'll also learn about the Madame Frigo Project through a presentation and interactive discussions.

Madame Frigo is focused on preserving resources and improving food security. Their initiatives help make a sustainable difference in our society, and your involvement means valuable support to the Volunteering Teams in their daily work.
