Our Impact
A Vision for Change: Fighting Food Waste, Nourishing Communities
In a world where good food is often discarded while many individuals go hungry, we are working to create meaningful change for both people and the planet by building a more sustainable and just food system—one meal at a time. At Meals That Matter, we believe that good food should never go to waste—especially when so many people in our communities face hunger and food insecurity. As a newly launched initiative in 2025, we are laying the foundation for a food rescue movement that reduces food waste and ensures equitable access to nutritious, familiar, and culturally relevant meals. By rescuing surplus meals and food products that would otherwise be discarded, we strive to build lasting solutions for a more inclusive, equitable, sustainable, circular, and just food system. Through strong partnerships, collaboration, education, awareness-building, and community engagement, we work to bridge the gap between surplus food and those who need it most or could benefit from it—particularly individuals and organizations in marginalized, vulnerable, and underserved communities—fostering a more sustainable, circular, and resilient future.

Will You Join Us?
Every meal rescued is a meal that matters. With every partnership formed, every donation made, every meal or food item saved and redirected, and every person nourished, we move one step closer to a world where good food is valued, shared, and never wasted. By working together, we are proving that small actions can create big change—turning surplus food into nourishment, comfort, healing, sustainability, and resilience.
As Meals That Matter takes its first steps, we invite you to get involved. Whether you are a food business interested in partnering and donating, an organization or individual looking to receive food, or a team or volunteer ready to support our mission, we welcome you to be part of this movement. Together, we are working toward a future where no good food goes to waste, and everyone has access to the meals and foods they need and deserve—nourishing both body and spirit.
Join us in making meals matter. Let’s build this movement together.
