Individuals

We directly donate and distribute food to more than 10,000 households and 35,000 people annually, primarily through free food giveaway events such as mobile pantry distributions.

These types of distribution events are very decentralized across many townships and various counties, enabling us to strategically serve communities where hunger and food insecurity are prevalent and even endemic.

In many cases, this includes an emphasis on serving people who reside in households located in so-called food deserts, typically lower-income and lower-access locations that are certain minimum distances from grocery stores and supermarkets.

One strategy that has resulted in great success has involved partnerships with townships that are generally located in rural areas where levels of poverty and hunger are elevated.

These types of partnerships have enabled us to work closely with local officials and decision-makers who best understand the people living around their communities, and how to optimally address their communities’ hunger realities at greater scale.

At our distribution events, we typically provide people with fresh produce, proteins such as meats, fresh dairy products such as milk, breads, snacks, and other items.

Our efforts result in enhanced household-wide access to healthy and nutritious food, improved personal well-being, greater flexibility in overall household budgets, and less total food decay.

These results are evident in our impact service area that extends thousands of square miles, including the distances that food recipients regularly drive to our free food giveaway events.

Institutions

We source and distribute food to a variety of institutional hunger relief organizations including food pantries, soup kitchens, missions, women’s safe centers, transitional living programs, and other types of non-profit entities.

These types of hunger relief organizations serve their neighbors in a variety of ways including direct food giveaways, prepared meals, and other direct-to-recipient programs.

We enable these types of counterparties to broaden their supply chains, source an increased variety of healthy and nutritious food, improve the quality and quantity of food they donate, and achieve greater impact in the respective communities they serve.

We are able to serve this last-mile, institutional sector of the food value chain because we have sufficiently expanded our supply chains to include donatable food that is not subject to federal or local geographic distribution restrictions.

Our efforts result in improved household-wide access to healthy and nutritious food, enhanced personal well-being, more flexibility in overall household budgets, and less overall food decay.

These results are evident in an impact service area that is less quantifiable but definitely extends thousands of square miles, including the distances that food recipients will drive to the free food giveaway events of the third-party hunger relief organizations that we serve.
