Rescue 500 million pounds with us!
Over the past six months, Food Forward has mobilized quickly— facilitating emergency distributions with our hunger relief partners to support families who had lost homes, income, and access to basic needs and essential benefits. By helping us reach our milestone of rescuing 500 million pounds of fresh fruits and vegetables since our founding, we will be able to get more produce in the hands of our friends and neighbors to feed more communities experiencing food insecurity.
The need for free, nutritious food in our local communities has never been more urgent.
With the soaring prices of groceries and more than 5 million Californians relying on food assistance at risk of being cut from government programs like SNAP, your support is vital.
In the US, nearly one-third of produce ends up in landfills. Access to healthy, nutritious food should be a basic human right—not a privilege reserved for those who can afford it. Your donation can help bridge that gap.
Fresh fruits and veggies belong in people's bellies, NOT landfills!
