Miami throws away thousands of pounds of good food every day. At the same time, thousands of Miami families don't have enough to eat.

You can help bridge that gap by supporting the launch of Food Rescue One, Nourish Miami’s first food rescue van.

Nourish Miami is putting Rescue One on the road to connect restaurants, hotels, caterers, and food distributors to our volunteers and community kitchens so surplus food reliably reaches the people who need it most.

Our drivers give their time and energy freely because they believe perfectly good food should never go to waste. Especially when so many people in our own city are hungry.

To keep them and Rescue One on the road, Nourish Miami needs $18,000 a year to pay for insurance, gas and maintenance.

We expect that investment to result in nearly 200,000 pounds of food rescued and more than 165,000 meals delivered. That’s just 15-cents per meal. So, every $10 monthly contribution funds pick-up and delivery of 66 meals per month; $15 funds 100.

Miami has a world-class food scene. It deserves a world-class food rescue and redistribution network. You can help build it by supporting Rescue One, Nourish Miami's first food rescue van.

Nourish Miami is a program of The Miami Community Food Network, Inc., a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, EIN:39-4814823. Volunteers are welcome. Donations are tax deductible. Visit www.nourishmiami.org.
