Europe Day: European Food Banks Federation as example for the fight against coronavirus

Europe Day held on 9 May was the occasion to celebrate the citizens across the continent doing their part in the fight against coronavirus: from healthcare professionals to farmers, lorry drivers and supermarket workers, not to mention the millions of Europeans who are simply staying at home and respecting social distancing measures to keep us all safe.
