Completing food rescues is a great way to complete student driving or community service hours!
“412 Food Rescue is a really cool volunteer experience! I completed three rescues as part of my senior service project. It made me happy to help others, and it’s great that the food does not go to waste.”
– Luke
It feels so good helping Pittsburgh neighbors experiencing food insecurity!

Be a Food Rescue Hero today!
Our volunteers are our personal heroes. Seven days a week across six counties in the Pittsburgh region, Food Rescue Heroes transport surplus food donations from retailers to nearby communities burdened by hunger.
With the 412 Food Rescue app, you can volunteer as much or as little as you’d like. Claim a weekly rescue to volunteer every week at the same place, same time. Or claim a one-time rescue that need to be transported as soon as possible.
Regardless, you can give back when it fits best into your schedule. It’s easy to make a difference. And for whatever you do, we thank you.
