Food Rescue Hero automates the time consuming, complicated and variable coordination of fresh retail food recovery so your team can reliably deliver more nutritious food to your community neighbors who need it most. Since 2016, the Food Rescue Hero Network has recovered 160M+ pounds of food, the equivalent of 130M+ meals, with 17 partners and a growing community of 51,000+ volunteers we call #FoodRescueHeroes. Launched in 2016, Food Rescue Hero was purposefully designed to automate the time consuming tasks associated with food recovery, to fuel growth and scaling potential. With Food Rescue Hero, coordination between food donors, non-profit partners and volunteer drivers becomes reliable, timely and transparent. Reliable, timely and transparent operations yield greater food waste prevention and shrink for real time data transparency and greater overall impact. Food Rescue Hero uniquely enables community food recovery efforts to have a greater impact on food waste, nutrition security and climate change on a local level, thereby contributing to our network's impact on our nation. Volunteer management, one of the most difficult aspects of food rescue to manage, is made nearly turnkey through the Food Rescue Hero app. Volunteer drivers get alerted when a food rescue is available near them and then are guided from donation pick up to delivery to a local non-profit, for unparalleled visibility and tracking. With commitment to human-centered design, each volunteer experiences an encouraging, positive app interaction that's contagious and fuels the movement, ultimately resulting in a 99% service level, which outperforms commercial transport rates. Our network is growing, giving even greater resources for each partner food rescue to do a lot, even if they have limited staff and resources. This makes a huge difference, especially at launch, to build community momentum and create even greater impact.
