Our MISSION:
Eliminate global hunger & reduce health issues related to unhealthy eating.
In our world of 7 billion, 1 billion suffer from hunger while another 2 billion suffer from obesity and other health related issues due to unhealthy eating. TABLE FOR TWO (TFT) is a global initiative to right this food imbalance through a unique meal-sharing program. First established in Japan in 2007, TFT partners with corporations, restaurants, schools and other food establishments to serve healthy TFT- branded meals. For each one of these healthy meals served, $0.25 is donated to provide one school meal for a child in need.
TFT Meal Sharing has expanded globally. On one side people are eating healthier meals, and on the other, children in East Africa, Southeast Asia and low income neighborhoods in the US are receiving healthy school meals. It is in this way that TFT has served healthy meals to both sides of the "table" and helped to right the global food imbalance.
TFT was initiated by and is an official affiliate of the World Economic Forum's Young Global Leaders. TFT expanded its activities worldwide to 14 countries, including Japan, the US, France, Germany, Italy, Norway, Switzerland, U.K., Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Philippines, Taiwan, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia.
As a non-profit organization which started in Japan and is expanding globally, TFT has started the innovative programs: “Onigiri Action” and “Wa-Shokuiku -Learn. Cook. Eat Japanese!-“ (in the US) featuring Japanese food culture to eliminate global hunger and reduce health issues related to unhealthy eating.
