At 412 Food Rescue, we believe that food belongs to people, not landfills. That's why we created an app that automates all the logistics of rescuing retail, surplus food, to make it easy for our volunteers to pitch in. In just 30 minutes to an hour, you can pick up fresh food that's about to get thrown away and deliver it to a non-profit that serves our neighbors facing food insecurity. It feels s

o good to help end food waste AND hunger at the same time! Since 87% of rescued food is fresh, time is always of the essence. That's why volunteer drivers like you, make all the difference. Restaurants, food stores and all kinds of retail food locations often have extra food to donate right near where you live. So many times, claiming a food rescue is convenient, and can become part of your everyday routine. Just download our app today - it's friendly, intuitive and fun! There's no age limit - if you're a parent with kids, bring them along. Enjoying a flexible work schedule? You can find a food rescue that works for you. We are so grateful for our growing community of Food Rescue Heroes all across Western Pennsylvania. Thank you for learning more about us and hope you'll join our movement, too.

26.2 miles. You’ve already done the hard part. Now believe you can finish. 💪

First-time marathoners: the nerves are real, but so is your training. When it gets tough, don’t overthink it, just take the next step. Then another. You CAN do this.

Running it again? You know the grind. Trust it and help lift someone else along the way.

Every mile supports 412 Food Rescue and helps fight hunger in our community. That matters. You didn’t come this far just to come this far. Keep going. Keep believing.

You. Can. Do. This. 🏁

⚠️🌍 According to the United Nations, food waste accounts for up to 11% of global greenhouse gas emissions, nearly five times those of the aviation sector.

When food ends up in landfills, it releases methane, a greenhouse gas up to 80x more potent than CO₂ over a 20-year period.

These aren’t just statistics; they’re a call to action. Fighting food waste means fighting climate change.
