Story
FareShare Greater Manchester is Digital Skills Festival 2024's Charity Partner!
FareShare Greater Manchester is an incredible project that works to fight hunger and tackle food waste in our community.
Currently, in Greater Manchester, one in four children are living in a food-insecure household. This means that they do not have regular access to satiating and nutritious food.
We want to harness the power of our community to help change this, by supporting the fantastic work FareShare Greater Manchester do.
How we're working together:
1. We'll be making a direct donation to FareShare Greater Manchester from Manchester Digital.
2. Our Digital Skills Festival events are all free to attend, so we're encouraging attendees to make a donation to FareShare Greater Manchester in lieu of paying for a ticket.
3. We're promoting FareShare before, during and after Festival, raising awareness for their vital work to an audience of potential corporate and individual supporters.
4. Our friends at FareShare will have a presence at the Festival, supporting them to make new connections to further their mission
