  • Share My Meals Recovery Program

    SHARE MY MEALS MEAL RECOVERY PROGRAM: DISTRIBUTION OF MEALS DONATED FROM LOCAL UNIVERSITIES, CORPORATIONS, SCHOOLS AND RESTAURANTS. THE MEAL RECOVERY PROGRAM IS AN INNOVATIVE AND SELF-SUSTAINABLE MEALS RECOVERY PROCESS, APPROVED BY THE LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS, THAT RESCUES SURPLUS READY-TO-EAT MEALS FROM FOOD PROVIDERS AND DELIVERS THEM TO FAMILIES IN NEED IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITIES. SHARE MY MEALS PARTNERS WITH LARGE FOOD SERVICE PROVIDERS AND CATERERS WORKING FOR CORPORATIONS AND UNIVERSITIES TO RECOVER THEIR UNTAPPED SURPLUS MEALS AND DELIVER THEM DIRECTLY TO THE HOME OF THOSE IN NEED OR TO COMMUNITY PARTNERS ALSO SERVING THE LOCAL FOOD INSECURE POPULATION.

  • Share My Meals Buffer Program

    SHARE MY MEALS BUFFER PROGRAM: THIS PROGRAM WAS LAUNCHED AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PANDEMIC IN PARTNERSHIP WITH LOCAL RESTAURANTS THAT AGREED TO PREPARE AND SELL MEALS AT COST TO THE ORGANIZATION FOR DISTRIBUTION TO FOOD INSECURE FAMILIES IN THE COMMUNITY. IN 2021 AND 2022, THIS INITIATIVE WAS SIGNIFICANTLY EXPANDED THANKS IN PARTICULAR TO THE FINANCIAL SUPPORT OF THE NJEDA'S SUSTAIN AND SERVE NJ PROGRAM. THE MEALS WERE NO LONGER BOUGHT AT COST, ALLOWING THE PARTICIPATING RESTAURANTS TO ALSO BENEFIT FROM THE PROGRAM. 26,887 MEALS WERE PURCHASED UNDER THIS PROGRAM IN 2022.
