40% of food produced in the United States goes to waste. Too often grocery stores and restaurants find themselves throwing out food, when there is significant need in their local communities. MEANS helps divert food from the trash to local emergency feeding services with the ease and speed of the internet, and signing up only takes a minute.

MEANS Database is the only 100% free food recovery network that exits. So far, over 2 million pounds of food has been donated through the MEANS system. With over 3,000 users in 51 states and territories, MEANS is taking the food recovery world by storm.
