Food Recovery Network (FRN) is the largest student-led movement recovering surplus food and ending hunger in the U.S. We unite 8,000+ college students, food suppliers, farmers, and local businesses across the U.S. in the fight against climate change and hunger by recovering surplus food from across the supply chain and donating it to local nonprofit organizations that feed people experiencing hunger.
FRN’s programs are on over 200 college campuses and 100 food businesses in 46 states and D.C., and they have recovered more than 24 million pounds of food to date – the equivalent of 20 million meals donated to feed individuals experiencing hunger and 8,135 metric tons of CO2e prevented from entering our atmosphere.
