Let’s chuck food waste in the trash. Over 90 billion pounds of food are wasted every year in the United States. And just one-third of that could end hunger overnight. Join us for our first guest episode featuring Robert Lee, CEO and co-founder of Rescuing Leftover Cuisine. RLC is a non-profit based in New York City which collects leftovers from restaurants and offices all over the city and delivers them to those without secure access to food. Food delivery for those in need. Listen for ways that you can help to solve the food insecurity problem exactly where you are. Join the conversation, go zero waste, and become part of the solution.
SUPPORT RLC: Sign up to volunteer or donate to support at https://www.rescuingleftovercuisine.org/.
CHALLENGE: Donate something. Food, clothes, toys, whatever you have of value that someone may need. Find a shelter or donation center near you, and make a contribution.
TAKEAWAYS: 1: WE CAN solve hunger with what we already have. 2: We waste more than we realize, and if we stop wasting we could change the world. 3: The face of food insecurity is not always visible on the surface. Our communities need us.
