Goals & Objectives

Our Goal in this campaign is to raise enough funds to support our daily operations of picking up donated food from grocers and food distribution warehouses to be redistributed to needy families and seniors throughout Central Florida!! We give FREE food without discriminating or requiring donations! Your support helps us to help others!! As Americans we waste more than 50% of farm produce due to its 'looks'. Grocery stores turn away food that is perfectly good to eat, because it has blemishes! We throw away food based on 'sell-by' dates... "Sell by" dates aren't meant for consumer use at all. They are tools to help retailers ensure proper product turnover when stocking shelves, yet many consumers believe it is a measure of food safety... We have hungry people in our own country...Help us reduce food waste, and reduce hunger! 100% of your donation goes toward feeding the hungry in Central Florida and soon throughout the entire state as we expand into the northern and the southern counties of the state!! Join us in our mission to 'Distribute Food, Provide Hope, Have Faith, End Hunger!!'
