Adaptability Leads to New Initiatives

This story appears in Table to Table’s 2024 Annual Impact Report!

When you picture the mission of T2T – do you see a volunteer walking the aisles of a grocery store or loading up in the parking lot? A cargo van packed to the brim with boxes of food, or a T2T vehicle making deliveries around town? This year, more than 100 volunteers each week dedicated 8,300 hours to our route based food rescue program.

Routes represent 66% of the food we recover, but did you know that nearly 1 million pounds of food comes from our expanded food rescue initiatives? This includes harvesting from local farms, gardeners, food processors, warehouses, and even the food transportation industry. By expanding our team and building new partnerships, we said “yes” to more food rescue opportunities than ever before. Take a look below at the results of a few key initiatives.
