Rescuing perishable items from over 16,000 retailers
92 billion pounds of food go to waste each year
This makes food waste the single largest category of materials in landfills.
That's why we have set a $50 MILLION goal to incrementally secure an additional 1 BILLION pounds of rescued food annually.
