How Food Rescue Works


1. donor

-

Whether it’s a one-time donation or a regular pick-up, become a donating partner here to begin the donation process. Donors are typically restaurants, grocers, catered events, etc.

*We do not accept donations from individuals at this time.

2. rescuer

-

Our volunteers can access and claim available donation pick-ups by registering on the Food Rescue US App. Each rescue has specific timeframes and instructions for the rescuer to reference.

3. receiving agency

-

The donated food is then transported by the rescuer to one of our 17 Receiving Agencies. Our Agencies include places like food pantries, foster homes, recovery centers, etc.

4. community

-

It all begins with a conversation. Know someone with a food surplus that isn’t on our donor list yet? Send them our way!
