In the U.S., about 40% of all food goes to waste, often ending up in landfills. Hunger at Home partners with venues, hotels, and restaurants of all sizes to rescue edible surplus food—whether it’s prepared meals, raw vegetables, fruit, or meat—and ensures it reaches those in need.
Recent California law (SB 1383) requires local businesses to repurpose edible food with the goal of 75% reduction of organic waste disposal by 2025. We assist your business in complying by collecting and repurposing surplus food, with a strong focus on food safety. Each donation is handled with strict adherence to current health and safety guidelines, ensuring it’s safe for consumption.
Our process is straightforward: we manage everything from collection to safe handling and distribution, transforming your contributions into nutritious meals for the community. By partnering with us, your business can make a meaningful impact, support those in need, and showcase your commitment to sustainability. Together, we can build a healthier community and a greener planet.
