FOOD RECOVERY
Annual Photo and Video Contest
Every year, starting October 1st, Food Recovery Network launches a month-long “Food Recovery Frames” photo and video challenge for our student-led chapters across the U.S.
We ask chapters to submit images and videos of their chapter in action and in their community for a chance to win prizes.
2 winners will be selected!
The more pictures and videos you send in, the more entries you will get. Each photo submission is worth 1 raffle entry, and each video submission is worth 5 raffle entries.
Contest Prizes:
FRN Sweatshirts for your eboard
FRN Bucket Hats
Must be currently affiliated with an official FRN Chapter to participate. By sending these photos and videos, you grant Food Recovery Network a license to repost, publicly display, and reproduce entries, in whole or in part, in any media now existing or later developed, for any purpose. This contest is not sponsored, endorsed, administered by, or associated with Instagram.
Good luck! Contest closes on 10/31/26 at 11:59 pm EST. Winners will be randomly selected. All winners will be notified via DM or email by @foodrecovery by November 5th, 2026
GUIDELINES
Pictures and videos can show your chapter tabling, recovering, advocating, meeting, or anything else your chapter does!
Videos do not have a length requirement -- we want to see your chapter in motion, whether that be during a meeting, event, recovery, etc.
Please make sure your submissions are clear and good quality (see examples below).
Please ensure photos reflect adherence to food safety guidelines! (hat or hairnet, gloves, closed-toe shoes)
