About Our Food Donation Program
Every day, tons of edible food from restaurants go to waste—not due to quality, but due to excess. Our platform bridges the gap between restaurants with surplus food and volunteers/NGOs ready to distribute it to those in need.
Together, we can fight hunger and food wastage with a simple, real-time solution that connects food donors with those who can ensure it reaches people experiencing food insecurity.
