Together, We are
Co-Creating Community
Focusing on ending food waste, together we can end hunger.
By accepting donated perishable foods our food cost is negligible and we can feed three times more families than national average. We are actively reducing food waste, while growing the available food supply incrementally; at the same time, we are creating jobs in our area.
We have found that most people who volunteer at soup kitchens want to serve food, they want the human connection, and rarely does anyone want to be the person in the back cooking the soup.
As a high volume commercial operation we can work harmoniously with existing charities to provide food to them while still pursuing our mission of reducing food waste and feeding children. As a potential donor your donation is not diluted as we are not in competition with existing charities, we are simply using a resource which we are uniquely qualified to handle.
We are not taking resources from other charities, our perishable foods many times cannot be utilized by the food charities in time to keep them viable. We direct our feeding program at those children whose families make too much for them to be helped by existing programs.
Together, with your help, We are:
- Creating an incremental food supply with food that would have been wasted.
- Feeding the next generation.
- Rescuing food that might have otherwise go to landfill.
- Creating jobs to help more people out of poverty
Frequently asked questions
Where are you located?
We are still an idea, not yet fully birthed. We are cooking out of multiple locations and trying to find a permanent home.
How much food is wasted?
The center for Eco Technology estimates that the average grocery store in the US discards 1 ton of edible food daily.
The average person eats between three to five pounds of food a day. So one ton of food = 2000 pounds; which means 400 people who could be fed all the food they need every day.
How did the idea come about?
One day my son said, “Daddy, what are you doing?”
When Bear said to me, “Daddy, what are you doing?!” He probably meant something about how I was dressed or not playing with him, but it came at the moment when I was questioning my impact in the world (having kids will do that) and I internalized his question, “what am I doing?”
What am I doing…
…to end hunger?
…to stop food waste?
…to make the world a better place for my kids?!
