About 412 Food Rescue

412 Food Rescue addresses the disconnect between the 40% of food that goes to waste and the 1 in 9 people that experience food insecurity. They utilize technology and volunteer drivers – #FoodRescueHeroes – to transport healthy surplus food that would otherwise be discarded from retailers, wholesale distributors, restaurants and similar food providers to a network of nonprofit partners to reach people who need it the most.

Their work has increased food access, impacted hunger and prevented perfectly good food from entering the landfill. To learn more visit 412foodrescue.org or download the Food Rescue Hero app to join the movement.
