Fighting Food Waste with Kechara Soup Kitchen

Every day, perfectly good food ends up in the trash while countless people struggle to find their next meal. But what if there was a way to fix both problems at once? Justin Cheah, Marketing Director of Kechara Soup Kitchen, joins us to show how it’s done. We discuss Kechara Soup Kitchen’s efforts to combat food waste, the inspiring stories behind their work, and the environmental and social ripple effects of their mission.
