What we do
Does anyone else think it's ridiculous that fresh food continues to pollute America's landfills while people go hungry? If so, you've landed on the right site.
Food Connection collects surplus fresh meals from restaurants, caterers and institutions, and delivers them to community partners who feed those in need, in order to reduce food waste and ease the pain of immediate hunger.
Where we are operating
Currently Food Connection is operating in Buncombe County, North Carolina, in cities including Asheville, Swannanoa and Black Mountain, and have just begun operating in Charlotte, NC.
That being said, we'd love to start a food rescue revolution in other places. Check out Brenda and Lorraine's story. If there are folks out there like these two, the revolution will begin sooner than later!
Our Mission
Food Connection relieves hunger while reducing waste by connecting surplus freshly prepared meals with those experiencing food insecurity.
Because this makes total sense, right?
