The Food Bank accepts food products free of charge, including those whose expiration dates are close to expiration, packs them with the help of volunteers and delivers them to needy people. At the same time, a strict product quality control system is in place.

Foodbank does not directly distribute food. This is done by a network of collaborating organizations - it includes local charities and social institutions that have direct contact with those in need. To cover the costs of logistics and subsequent sorting of collected products, campaigns are held to collect monetary donations from individuals and organizations.
