Have you ever attended a large banquet at a hotel or watched your favorite team at a sports stadium and wondered what happens to the food that is not eaten?
40% of all food produced in the United States is wasted and goes into landfill.
This is where Hunger at Home comes in — through our business partnerships with grocery stores, farms, restaurants, hotels, stadiums and convention centers, Hunger at Home recovers and repurposes food and distributes it to those in need through our nonprofit partners and weekly drive-through food distribution.
Now California has a new law that will allow us to expand our food rescue and recovery program exponentially and feed more people.
SB1383 – the Organic Waste Recovery Bill – requires local businesses to repurpose edible food with the goal of 75% reduction of organic waste disposal by 2025.
Hunger at Home is uniquely positioned to help business comply with this new law.
Responding to food insecurity within the community is what we do. Through our network of talented chefs, passionate volunteers, and incredible partners, we make sure that nutritious food gets to those facing food insecurity in our community.
