Many of the June 2021 social good trends center on ways to give back to marginalized communities, to small businesses, and to the earth. These trends highlight the importance of awareness and cooperation in constructing solutions that work for the world.
The Feedback app, launched in Toronto, is a digital platform that reduces food waste by connecting consumers to food from popular restaurants. The app offers time-sensitive cost-effective promotions that enable consumers to order and pick up excess food from participating restaurants.
Fixing Fashion has a similar focus on reducing waste, but operates in the textile industry. Fixing Fashion is an online learning platform that offers consumers the tools to effectively upgrade and upcycle their wardrobe instead of throwing out their old clothes. Through this process, the initiative helps cut down the carbon impact of fast fashion.
