IS FOOD RESCUE?

Food rescue, also called food recovery, is the practice of collecting fresh, edible food that would have otherwise gone to waste from restaurants, grocers, and other food establishments and distributing it to people who need it.

Food rescue is extremely effective because it gets food to those who need it most and reduces food waste, minimizing the amount of toxic emissions from food waste in landfills.
