Rethink Food is a nonprofit organization on a mission to create a more sustainable and equitable food system. Founded in 2017, their goal is to bridge the gap between excess food and the communities that need it. They have a network of community-based organizations, local restaurants, kitchens, and corporations that work together to provide nourishing and culturally celebrated meals to food-insecure communities.

To tackle the issue of food waste, Rethink Food operates a sustainable commissary kitchen that expertly converts excess food into quality meals. They also offer sustainability services to help companies achieve their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals. Furthermore, they advocate for systemic change by collaborating with city, state, and federal governments.

Since their founding, Rethink Food has made a significant impact. They have converted over 1. 9 million pounds of excess food into meals, directed $40 million to local restaurants, and distributed meals to food-insecure communities in six cities.

Their network is responsive, hyperlocal, and committed to meeting the needs of communities. You can get involved with Rethink Food by supporting their work as a restaurant, company, volunteer, or community-based organization.
