  1. The Felix Project redistributes surplus food from the food industry that is still good to eat (but would have otherwise been binned) and delivers it to millions of adults & children in need in London ( [https://thefelixproject.org/about/our-story](https://thefelixproject.org/about/our-story) ). In 2022 the charity rescued over 12,100 tonnes of food this way alone and since 2020 have so far provided 10 million meals people living in London.

  2. That’s great news for Felix, and the food banks that rely on them, but it in no way makes Amazon any less of a terrible company. They are complete sh*t and always have been, always will be.

  3. more image washing when they avoid taxes by millions. pay your bloody taxes and your workers

  4. All of you guys saying pay your taxes and whatnot, first Amazon isn’t doing anything illegal – write to your MP to close tax loopholes. Second, you’d rather Amazon not do this?

  5. As there’s all the regular questions about volunteering: the Felix project is always looking for more people – [info on their volunteering page](https://thefelixproject.org/help-us/volunteer-london).

    They especially need drivers, but you can also sign up as a cyclist / pedestrian if you don’t drive (or warehouse/kitchen/office stuff) collecting surplus food from places in central London.

  6. nooo you can’t be happy with this! think of the heckin billionairerinos!

    haha good deed goes brrrr

  7. I’ve volunteered at the Felix Project in Deptford.

    It’s a great charity, and I highly recommend spending half a day there.

    Much of the food they distribute comes from the likes of Ocado and Amazon (I’m guessing from their Amazon Fresh stores and grocery deliveries).

    There’s lots of reasons to bash Amazon, but the work they do with the Felix Project is great. Many retailers just opt to throw stuff in the rubbish.

  8. thats a cheap out,, the taxes, if paid, would be better and if wages were a reflection of how great the workforce has made the company, who would need hand outs, of meagre amount, from the company that is worth

    Market Summary
    Amazon.com Inc
    **1.62 trillion USD**

  9. ‘The English bourgeoisie is charitable out of self-interest; it gives nothing outright but regards its gifts as a business matter, makes a bargain with the poor, saying: ‘If I spend this much upon benevolent institutions, I thereby purchase the right not to be troubled any further, and you are bound thereby to stay in your dusky holes and not to irritate my tender nerves by exposing your misery.’

    Engels.

  10. That is a pittance for them . Its just free publicity.
