Kickstart your surplus donation journey,
for free.
You have surplus, and your community needs food. But logistics can get in the way of connecting the dots.
Donating is easy through Drive Away Hunger. They cover the cost and your surplus is added to a industry-wide total of meals raised for Canadians in need.
SUPPORT FOR
Occasional surplus
We know surplus can be occasional and unexpected. That’s why we built a Marketplace to list surplus food for donation or sale.
HOW IT WORKS
1. You list surplus food on our Marketplace platform (or call us, and we'll list it for you)
2. We notify a network of donation recipients
3. You accept offers from potential recipients
4. Surplus is picked up from your dock
SUPPORT FOR
Ongoing surplus
For many businesses, surplus arises on a regular basis. We can help you send it to people instead of landfills on the schedule you decide.
HOW IT WORKS
1. You determine the frequency of pickups
2. We match you with local hunger relief organizations
3. Surplus is picked up from your dock
4. Your waste hauling fees go down
