Stocks (from English ‘stock’: supply, store in stock) are food and non-food products that have not lost their consumer properties, transferred to the Fund as a donation by donors. Large companies always have surplus products in excess of the quantity necessary for the effective turnover of company stocks, formed as a result of overproduction, insignificant package rejection, other marketing reasons, and the loss of commercial attractiveness of products for Donor does not mean its loss of consumer properties.

The Fund receives donations from the Donors as donations to the beneficiaries of the Program. As a rule, the Fund finances transportation of donations to the regions.

MEALS FOR ALL, CHARITABLE PROJECT

Meals for All is a project to supply the program's beneficiaries with lunches consisting of food ingredients (for example, cereals, dried vegetables). Within the framework of the project, with the support of the partners of the Fund, shops on the formation of food kits are being opened. These shops are temporary non-stationary volunteer centers where volunteers make grocery sets (Meals for All) from the food ingredients purchased by the Foundation according to specially developed recipes taking into account the caloric content of the products. The Meals for All formed by volunteers are donated as donations to the beneficiaries of the Program through the NPO partner network or directly.

The Meals for All Project is implemented at the expense of monetary targeted donations from individuals and legal entities to the Fund.

As a rule, the Fund finances purchase of necessary products and supplies, as well as transportation of donations to the regions.

During the development of the project, changes are possible, in particular, changes in the recipes of lunches, use of non-targeted donations for the project, and other changes that do not affect the essence of the project.
