WHO WE HELP AND HOW                                                                                             

Food Recovery Just Makes Sense

FOOD DONORS
Our service is free, we make it easy 
and it makes a difference in our community

  • Save on disposal fees
  • Receive an enhanced tax deduction
  • Comply with increasingly strict recycling laws like SB1383
  • Improve company morale
NONPROFIT PARTNERS:
We provide food that meets their needs

  • Save money on food so they can focus their budget on other necessities
  • Provide more nutritious meals and healthy fresh food to more people
VOLUNTEERS:
A simple way to make a difference in our community

  • Flexibility - sign up for trips that work with their schedules
  • Build relationships with other volunteers, food donors, and recipients
  • Great opportunity for retirees and youth groups to be involved in our community
PEOPLE FACING FOOD INSECURITY:
One less thing for people who are struggling to worry about

  • By increasing equitable access to healthy, fresh food, we enable hungry children to learn, struggling adults to find jobs, and vulnerable seniors to age in place with dignity
THE PLANET:
Food waste is a massive
global problem

  • Keeping food waste out of landfills will slow the effects of climate change

"Within Marin Community Clinics Health Hub, we are incredibly appreciative of ExtraFood's generosity and ongoing support. It is wonderful to see the efforts being made to fulfill the purpose of providing healthy and delicious food for our most vulnerable members of the community. As we know, it is getting harder to buy affordable food, especially in our lower income communities, being the most impacted. Therefore, I am glad to be able to support those in need in our community by enhancing access to food through our health hubs. Every food donation that Health Hub receives has a significant positive impact on our communities. We cannot do this without the help of our partner ExtraFood and the dedication and hard work of our weekly volunteers."
