FoodRecovery.org

Through our platform, we connect organizations with surplus food to communities in need, championing sustainability by diverting edible food away from landfills.

FoodRecovery.org powered by MEANS Database is an online platform connecting those with excess food, like grocery stores, warehouses and restaurants with nearby emergency food providers. In less than a minute, food donors of all sizes can find a charity that will use their unsold food to feed those in need. Our organization has two major goals: to reduce food waste and reroute that food to feed people facing food insecurity. FoodRecovery.org has been working in the anti-hunger space since 2015 and has adapted to meet the needs of clients and those in need. FoodRecovery.org was founded with the belief that it should be easy for those with excess food to share it with those in need. Since then, we’ve grown to having more than 4,215 users and have recovered over 180 million pounds of food.
