THE STORY:
412 Food Rescue is my life.
After I heard about their multi-pronged approach to combat waste and hunger, I was totally on board. I would be hard-pressed to find someone who didn't want to help them!
While volunteering I met so many cool people -- donors and recipients as well as the wonderful 412 Food Rescue staff and fellow volunteers. Volunteering is such a fulfilling almost-daily activity!
If you support them and support me supporting them, please donate to my campaign! Thank you so much!!

412 FOOD RESCUE INC official description -
While we throw away 40% of food produced, 1 in 7 goes hungry. Founded as a direct response to the disconnect between food waste, hunger and environmental sustainability, 412 Food Rescue works to eliminate hunger and promote a healthy environment by rescuing surplus food about to go to waste and redirecting to nonprofits that serve those who are food insecure. Transported by a growing network of volunteer #FoodRescueHeroes, 412 Food Rescue directly transfers perfectly good food from food donors (grocery stores, wholesalers, restaurants, etc) to nonprofit partners that serve those who are food insecure. Join the 2018 Pittsburgh Marathon 412 Food Rescue Marathon Heroes to support the fight against #hunger and #foodwaste in Pittsburgh!
