FRN's Summer Chapter Showcase

August 1, 2025

Student chapters make our mission possible. As the largest student-led movement recovering surplus food in the U.S., chapters are the lifeblood of FRN. We took the opportunity this summer to launch the Summer Chapter Showcase, spotlighting 12 amazing chapters for their tireless efforts. 


We kicked off the showcase with a spotlight on Montclair State University. Since their inception in 2017, this chapter has recovered more than 16,000 lbs of surplus food from campus dining facilities. "We donated over 1,400 meals to our on-campus food pantry - and provided over 190 hours in volunteer work," reflects chapter leader Nikki Cocuzza at the end of the Spring 2025 semester. Alongside recovering food, this chapter organizes and advocates around issues related to food waste, hunger, and sustainability, and frequently volunteers with their partner agency.

Rounding out the showcase is one of FRN’s newest student chapters at Keene State College. This chapter not only recovers food but also donates it to organizations on campus, alongside engaging in advocacy around issues related to food waste, hunger, and sustainability. "We just started recovering this semester, but we are getting better and growing the program on our campus," shares chapter leader Lena Goins.

We are beyond grateful for the fantastic work of every student leader in our network, and can’t wait to spotlight more chapters in our Winter Chapter Showcase!
