At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious goal: to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste together.

Your answer will be maintained confidentially and not be seen by selecting officials or anyone else involved in making personnel decisions. Completing the form will not negatively impact you in any way, regardless of whether you have self-identified in the past.
