We are on the verge of initiating our third year of community college grants to reach even more campuses, recover a substantial amount of food, reduce greenhouse gases by preventing food from rotting in landfills, and help level the playing field for food justice. The impact we can make in the year ahead will be exponential.

Food Recovery Network (FRN) is excited to announce the opening of applications for the third year of its Community College Food Recovery Grant Program. This initiative aims to establish and strengthen food recovery programs at community colleges across the United States, helping to combat food waste while supporting people experiencing hunger within local communities.

Food Recovery Network (FRN) set a record this year by recovering 14,017.37 pounds of food from Big Game tailgates in just one afternoon.

– As excitement builds for the Big Game in Santa Clara, local tailgate parties are set to take center stage. Among the festivities, Food Recovery Network (FRN) sees these events as vital opportunities to combat hunger in our communities. At Guy Fieri’s Flavortown Tailgate, Hellmann’s Mayonnaise and FRN will work together to ensure that no surplus food goes to waste, benefiting families in need in the Bay Area.
