The answer

It is not permissible to dispose of the company's property, whether food or other items, through charity or otherwise, except with its permission. This is because it constitutes an encroachment upon another's property and is forbidden. However, if the company allocates a specific share of water or food to you, then you are permitted to give charity from it.
