What is Secondbite?

SecondBite is a Leading Food Charity and Rescue organisation. Dedicated to Rescuing Surplus Food for Australian Charities, Community Groups & Food Banks Nationwide.

In 2023 SecondBite rescued 25.2 million kilograms of food to provide more than 50 million meals.

The effects of droughts, floods, fires, and the rising cost of living have caused the demand for food relief to soar. There’s still so much more to be done.

For every dollar you donate, Secondbite distribute enough food for up to five meals.
