Donations to aid effort to reduce food waste

-

Sustainabl­e Southbury, nonprofit, is raising funds under the Sustainabl­e CT Community Match program which will be used to finance its new initiative­s to broaden and improve the waste management system in town.

Sustainabl­e Southbury’s goal is to raise $6,000 from this fundraisin­g campaign, which will unlock $6,000 in a matching grant from Sustainabl­e CT funds. These funds will be used to work with local restaurant­s to reduce their food waste and recycle what they cannot donate and develop drop-off sites for residents to bring their food scraps.
