Our Community

Community is the heart of our mission and we bring an intention to serve everyone in our community: the hungry, the organizations that feed them, our food donors, our supporting partners and financial donors.

What We Do

We save local nonprofit organizations over $4 million in food costs each year that they can use to strengthen their community programs like homelessness, outreach, reunification of families, addiction recovery, programs for at-risk youth, and more.

Food Waste In Kentuckiana

A recent Louisville Solid Waste Management study showed that nearly 29 percent of solid waste in Jefferson County is food. We believe that is unacceptable!

Each year, we rescue and deliver over 2.5 million pounds of food across our area including Jefferson, Oldham and Shelby counties in Kentucky, and Clark, Floyd, and Harrison counties in Indiana.

We deliver food to 80+ recipient organizations each year including homeless shelters, addiction recovery centers, children’s centers, schools, food pantries, churches and more.

In 2022, we saved the organizations that we serve over $4.6 million that they can use to strengthen their programs which makes our community stronger. Last year, we rescued enough food to serve 2.3 million meals to food insecure people across Kentuckiana!
