Athens Food Rescue
Donation protected
Athens Food Rescue is a new non-profit organization. We pickup excess food from local businesses and restaurants and distribute to local charities.
Our Purpose:
1. To bridge a gap in our food system by increasing food waste diversion.
2. Redistribute surplus food from donors to local agencies that feed hungry, homeless or low income people.
3. Promote environmental health by reducing solid waste transported to landfills and decrease food insecurity in our region by providing meals to those in need.
We need funding for coolers, training materials, promotion, thermometers for safe handling, logo design, website, scales, gas cards for volunteers and other startup costs.
Thank you for your help feeding people at risk for food insecurity.
