2. FoodCycle is a non-profit organization that operates by setting up groups of volunteers to collect surplus produce locally and prepare nutritious meals in unused professional kitchen spaces that are served to those in need in the local community.

3. FoodCycle’s mission is to combine volunteers, surplus food and a free kitchen space to create nutritious meals and positive social change in the community.

4. History In September 2008, Canadian Kelvin Cheung founded FoodCycle . He decided to start the organization after hearing about the US on-campus student service program, Campus Kitchen, where students use on-campus kitchen space and donated food from their cafeterias to prepare nourishing meals for their communities. FoodCycle’s pilot hubs were at the Imperial College London and the London School of Economics. In October 2010, the first Community Café at Stroud Green, Haringey, London, called Station House was opened.
