Alexandria: August Volunteer of the Month

Join us in congratulating Alexandria, Table to Table’s August Volunteer of the Month. Congratulations, Alexandria! Alexandria is a student attending Mahwah High School.

“Through Table to Table, I’ve become more connected with my community, and volunteering for this organization allows me to fill hearts and stomachs rather than landfills,” Alexandria said. “Knowing I helped bring a meal to a table gives me a great sense of purpose, and above all, seeing the smiles on people’s faces makes it all worthwhile.”

Signing up to be a Table to Table volunteer is easy. Julie Kinner, Table to Table’s VP of Operations, said all you have to do is download the Table to Table I-Rescue app, powered by Food Rescue Hero, on your phone to become a food rescue hero! You’ll complete a simple registration process and volunteer agreement, and then you can get started. The app walks you through every step! 

Volunteers of all ages are welcome to volunteer with our food rescue program. However, the driver must have a valid driver’s license, and a valid vehicle registration and insurance. 

Since we launched, more than 350 volunteers have completed more than 9,600 rescues and delivered more than 2 million pounds of donated food that would have been thrown away.

As New Jersey’s first and largest food rescue, our mission is to reduce food waste and provide nourishment to our food-insecure neighbors throughout North Jersey. We rescue millions of pounds of fresh food annually that would otherwise be wasted and end up in landfills, contributing to climate change. We deliver it to partner organizations who support the nearly 1 million people in our area who need it most.

Together, we can reduce food waste in our home and make a positive impact on the planet. Every little bit of effort—no matter how small–leads to change.

REAL PEOPLE, REAL STORIES.
