Many people in West Haven are at risk of going hungry each month. With partnerships between food industry businesses, community groups and clergy organizations, we can dramatically reduce food waste and hunger.
Everyone can help—it’s easy. Whether you have a few servings of a prepared dish or a large volume of surplus food, there is a community group near you that can use it. The non-profit organizations listed on this website help distribute food safely and equitably to those in need.
Food is the largest component of the waste stream for food stores and restaurants. For most food-related businesses, 40-60% of total waste is food scraps, much of which is still edible. Donating food not only helps feed hungry people, it helps your business and the environment.
