Make Rescued Food Count!  
How much rescued food did you receive in 2015?
How much food was rescued and redirected to feed those that are food insecure in 2015? Community Food Rescue needs your help to find out.  We're aggregating the amount of rescued food--perfectly good food that would have otherwise gone to waste--throughout Montgomery County. This information is critical to show the good work of hunger relief organizations and progress toward  achieving the County's food waste reduction goals. 

If you receive rescued food or know of food assistance organizations that do, please share this survey. You don't have to be a CFR network member or use the CFR matching tool to report your food donations. We'll share our 2015 donated food aggregation report this spring.

Take just a few minutes to complete our online survey, Click HERE to add your voice and donated pounds so that together, we can feed more and waste less.
