A NEW way to donate excess food.
SMART
It's inevitable that food businesses have a bit of surplus at the end of a day. But, we believe there's a better way to manage excess than to throw out edible food. It's much better for the environment to redirect this food to people in need.SIMPLE
We can help make food recovery part of everyday business activities, so businesses can say goodbye to tipping fees. Register. Donate. Repeat. How simple is that? Donating surplus food just makes good sense.LOCAL
FoodResue.ca is the safe and secure way for businesses to support our communities and for non-profit organizations to access food to help feed our neighbours in need. This is the FoodRescue.ca community.
