Food Donor Testimonials
“We are proud to partner with ICT Food Rescue because people in Wichita should never go hungry. The concept of giving leftover food to someone in need may be simple to consider, but there are unavoidable challenges that make it easier for restaurants to simply throw away good food. ICT Food Rescue removes the logistical barriers and puts our good food directly into the hands of deserving people. They reduce friction and create immediate measurable impact.”

“Rise Farms is proud to be a food donor for ICT Food Rescue. By donating our surplus food to ICT Food Rescue, we ensure that our farm is operating in a no waste manner. Further, the tag line for all our food businesses is: ‘Food is Art. Food is Culture. Food is Medicine. Food is Social Justice’ This tag line illustrates our belief that our food is grown for everyone from chefs in high-end restaurants to citizens living in the 23 miles of food dessert and food insecure neighborhoods of our community. It would be much more difficult if not impossible to get our surplus food to the people who need it if it were not for ICT Food Rescue. We are beholden and appreciative.”

Nonprofit Partner Testimonials
“ICT Food Rescue fills more than our refrigerator – the weekly donations are capacity building gifts that actually save Wichita Family Crisis Center 40% of our weekly food budget!! With those savings, we are able to purchase items that are in high demand in our shelter, such as bath towels, hair care, laundry and toiletry items. These items may seem basic, but they are more like luxuries without the help we receive from ICT Food Rescue. Thank you for helping Wichita Family Crisis Shelter support domestic violence victims in becoming thriving survivors”

“ICT Food Rescue is a blessing to so many. The Union Rescue Mission housed either in our emergency shelter or in residential life change programs, 1,581 different men last year. The saints at ICT Food Rescue, your volunteers, and your donors make it possible for us to operate within our budget (and helped us to provide nutritious meals at a much-reduced costs!) May God continue to bless the staff, board, volunteers, and donors at ICT Food Rescue!”
