The Federal Bill Emerson Good Samaritan Food Donation Act

We were asked to participate in a Cooking and Connecting charitable giveback program for the New England Meetings and Industry Expo (NEMICE). They decided what many of our clients have realized that culinary team building is hot and combined with philanthropic give-back component, it really is the talk of the industry for team building and philanthropy.

Our Fare to Share program is widely used by teams to work together to create a meal and also create food for those less fortunate by giving back to local food banks. A program like this wouldn’t be possible without the Bill Emerson Good Samaritan Food Donation Act. Senator John Kerry says that this act is “a wonderful example of what is possible when common sense and common good rule the day in Congress”.

This act encourages the donation of food and grocery products to non-profit organizations such as homeless shelters, soup kitchens and churches by releasing the donor of any potential liability that can stand in the way of community service.

TeamBonding is focused on our series of philanthropic team building programs which allow teams to work together to give back to the community through Fare to Share, our Charity Bike Build, the “Art” of Giving, beehive building, a Habitat for Humanity program and Operation: Military Care.

These are programs that we feel good about offering and teams and the recipients feel good about being a part of. This is true team building.
