OzHarvest and Do Something join forces to Feed Sydney

Two of Australia's most decorated activists, Ronni Kahn of food rescue charity OzHarvest and
Jon Dee of action group Do Something, have joined forces to launch Feed Sydney, a month-long
campaign running 1-30 June 2010, aiming to feed an extra 250,000 vulnerable people this
winter. This inaugural campaign highlights the issues of food wastage, food poverty and food
recovery with all money raised going directly to charities who serve food and provide daily
services necessary to those in need.
