Closing the Gap. One Meal at a Time.

Closing the gap between surplus food and community need.

Food For Today strengthens food rescue where it begins: inside the grocery store. We equip department teams to turn surplus inventory into consistent meals for local partners.

Our Core Purpose

Strengthening food rescue where surplus starts.

Help more good food reach people by strengthening food rescue where it begins: inside the grocery store.

By partnering directly with grocery departments, we remove logistical hurdles, train staff on safe sorting, and ensure quality surplus reaches neighborhood pantries on a dependable schedule.
