Food Rescue US - South Florida is committed to reducing food waste and hunger in our community. We help the environment by keeping food from decomposing in landfills. 

Using the Food Rescue US web-based app, we engage volunteers to transfer unused surplus food from local businesses to local social service agencies providing for the food insecure. 

Since launching in 2018, we have provided 6.5+ million meals to those in need and kept 7.7+ million pounds of excess food from going to landfills. 

We partner with more than 200 food donors, 1200 volunteer food rescuers, and 80 agencies. Food donors include Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Beach Convention Center, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Milams Markets, The Fontainebleau Hotel, 1 Hotel, and restaurants like Red Rooster, Cafe La Trova, and Red Steak South Beach. Agency partners include Miami Rescue Mission, Lotus House Shelter, Coconut Grove Crisis Food Pantry, Village FREEdge, Buddy System Community Refrigerators, Camillus House, and Chapman Partnership.
