Kellys' Community Kitchen
Mission
Kellys' Community Kitchen recognizes the stark contrast between the abundance of food that is enjoyed by some in our community and the struggle undertaken by others daily, to feed themselves and their families. Food waste occurs both at the community (restaurants, civic and private orgs, schools) and household levels.
Our mission is to identify these excess resource channels, and then "rescue" unused ingredients or surplus prepared food; thus diverting them from the landfill. We both transform raw product into safe, nourishing meals as well as intake and redistribute cooked food (leftovers) to those less fortunate in our community.

About Us
We rescued over 4200 pounds of food in 2024 just between me and my two sons. That's perfectly edible food that was diverted from the landfill and onto someone's plate.
We recover from college dining halls, corporate dining and even sports team facilities and stadiums.
