Eco info - French food aid associations sound the alarm

9/5/2023, 2:21:05 PM

Highlights: The president of the Restos du Cœur was moved Sunday by a risk of bankruptcy of the emblematic association founded in 1985 by the humorist Coluche. The Secours populaire, the Red Cross and the French Federation of Food Banks followed suit. At issue for all these associations: the increase in the number of applicants due to inflation and the increase of energy or fuel bills. All call for a wave of solidarity.
