Grace Klein Community is working closely with local organizations to monitor and respond to the COVID-19 outbreak alongside staff, volunteers and a growing network of partners. We are providing support to those who are directly or indirectly affected by the outbreak. We are seeing unprecedented and rapidly growing demands for services.
In partnership with The Joint Supply Coalition, a core group of churches, non-profits and businesses are working together to fight food insecurity and encourage people to stay strong in these uncertain times.
Since 2010, we have been providing opportunities for individuals, families and groups to give their lives away by serving others. The pandemic has tripled our reach and our urgency for volunteers. Before COVID-19 we required 100 volunteers a week to operate, so yea... we need 10-20 more people every day to pace the growth. We need you!http://volunteer.FeedBHM.org/

Mission Statement
Food Rescue US is committed to ending American food insecurity by directly transferring fresh, usable food that would have otherwise been thrown away from restaurants, grocers and other food industry sources to food insecure families throughout the U.S.
Description
Food Rescue US exists as a platform for the rescue of healthy surplus food, to be direcctly transferred to those in need. Hunger is no longer just a challenge to the homeless and jobless, hunger happens near us; it happens to families we know, to people with jobs and homes who are trying desperately to make life work.
What Can We Do?
Join us! Become a food rescuer and help those in need in your own community!
This platform is a toolbox of information and we focus on training, technology, and coordination to make volunteering and donating as simple and effective as possible. We're not saying that ending unnecessary hunger in our communities will be easy, but we do believe it's simple and that all of our efforts when combined form something substantial. In this case, since we began, that is over 17 million meals delivered and 28 million pounds of food saved from landfill.
