Who We Are
Rescuing Leftover Cuisine is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit focused on providing a reliable food rescue service by fostering community connections to reduce food waste and food insecurity.
What We Do
We partner with licensed food vendors (restaurants, bakeries, etc) and businesses who order catering (offices, production companies, etc.) who know they will have excess, wholesome cuisine and link their food donations to a human service agency within their local community. Our dedicated team of Lead Rescuers (dedicated food waste fighters like you!) collect that excess food on a weekly basis (sometimes daily!) and deliver it to one of RLC's partner human service agencies to help feed our neighbors who can benefit from a good meal!
Who We Need - https://www.rescuingleftovercuisine.org/volunteer
YOU!!
RLC is currently seeking passionate and committed leaders who are willing to take on the role of Lead Rescuer and lead food rescue events. Pick up food donations and deliver them to a human service agency, where the donations will then be distributed to the homeless and food insecure community.
Each event is an hour or less. As new volunteer opportunities become available they will be added to our online calendar: https://www.rescuingleftovercuisine.org/calendar.
