By rescuing excess fresh food from businesses, securing freshly-made meals, and immediately delivering the food to nonprofits serving Marin’s most vulnerable children, seniors, and families, we address the critical issues of hunger, wasted food & climate change.

Community Spotlight:
food-recipientsPeople’s Inter-Cities Fellowship (PCIF)

Located in Marin City, PCIF is a non-denominational, interracial, community-based Christian Fellowship. Food program managers Leticia and Bridget always greet our volunteers with big smiles and open hearts. Says Leticia, “Kids come when their parents aren’t home and they don’t have food in the house. People with babies who live on food stamps come for milk. Seniors who need food at the end of the month when their government benefit checks run out, come for a bag of groceries.” We are honored to be working with PICF to serve our community members in need.
