Food rescue

Food rescue is when food that would have otherwise been thrown away is given to people who need it. It can come from farmers, markets, restaurants, and grocery stores. The food is usually still good to eat, but it may be close to expiration or not be the exact type of food that the store was looking for. The food is quickly collected and given to organizations like food banks and homeless shelters so that it can be used to help feed people who are in need. Food rescue helps prevent waste and provides nourishment to people who might not otherwise have it.
