Large-scale Food Donations

Partner with us to donate your business’ excess food and feed people, not landfills.

Become a Large-scale Food Donor

Our large-scale donation program offers CPG businesses, manufacturers, and farms an efficient way to donate obsolete inventory and short-dated products. These donations of one or more pallets of food and beverages are crucial to scaling our impact and supporting a wide network of social service nonprofits across the country. Our nominal fee of $50 per pallet covers the logistical costs of large-scale food donations, turning your surplus into a vital community resource (learn more here).

We can coordinate donations of multiple pallets anywhere in the US. Let's work together to prevent wasted food and fight food insecurity!
