Behind the scenes
We were having far too much fun testing the ๐ค๐
Enjoy the outtakes!
Weโd also love it if you could donate to our Go Fund Me page to help us keep having fun, I mean serve the community with our smiley faces of course โบ๏ธ
After yesterdayโs achievement we thought weโd share a day in the life of our community fridge team.
From collecting the food from supermarkets, weighing it, displaying it, and inviting you, our local community to donate to it and use it.
Thereโs so much involved in making this work, so we really appreciate your donations to keep this running ๐
