Food Rescue US is committed to reducing food waste and food insecurity in America. Using a proprietary web-based app, the non-profit engages volunteers to transfer excess fresh food from grocers, restaurants, and other sources, to social service agencies that feed people who are food insecure. Food Rescue US volunteers choose the rescue that fits their schedule and their car size and transports donated food from our donors to a local social service agency. This is all done using our software, our goal is to make it as easy and flexible as possible. Rescues are designed to take an hour or less and there is no minimum commitment when someone registers as a rescuer. Food Rescue US is a national organization with 40 sites across 21 states and DC. The process of food rescuing is quick, simple and extremely rewarding. Please volunteer as a rescuer by registering at app.foodrescue.us/signup.

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.
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.
