40% of food produced in the United States is wasted every year
40% of food wasted in the United States come from restaurants, grocery stores, and food service companies
11% of the Lowcountry's population is food insecure
We're a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that rescues leftover food. Mostly from restaurants/caterers, salvaging un-plated food that would otherwise be thrown away. We also rescue leftover packaged food, produce, bakery items, etc. And deliver it to Lowcountry nonprofits serving the food-insecure population.
After his years of service in the air force, and a career in engineering, Chuck Smiley now serves the local community by saving and relocating food in Charleston. Inspired and driven by his family, Chuck wishes to bring Charleston's food insecurity to light and reduce the amount of yearly food waste.
Since April 2022 , we have donated over 23,000 lbs of food!
