About 412 Food Rescue: Driven by the belief that good food belongs to people, not landfills, 412 Food Rescue launched in Pittsburgh, PA, in March 2015 to divert fresh food from going to waste by redirecting it to people facing food insecurity.

Today, it is the largest volunteer food rescue organization in the country with a growing community of 23,000+ volunteers. Since more than 80% of the food for pick up is fresh, timely delivery is essential. 412 Food Rescue developed an innovative, integrated platform, Food Rescue Hero, which includes a proprietary app that makes claiming food rescues easy and convenient, guiding each volunteer every step of the way from pick up to delivery. Food Rescue Hero is licensed for use at 18 food rescue organizations in North America.

In the United States, as much as 40% of food produced is wasted, while 1 in 10 people go hungry. To date, 412 Food Rescue has diverted over 33 million pounds of food bound for the waste stream in Western Pennsylvania, the equivalent of more than 27 million meals, mitigating over 65 million pounds of CO2 emissions in the process. On a monthly basis, the organization works with over 590 food retailers and 410 nonprofit partners.
