Our friends at The Lakeshore WM recently shared about our Lakeshore Food Rescue initiative, in partnership with Ottawa Food!
Lakeshore Food Rescue recently launched use of the Food Rescue Hero app, which allows neighbors like you to volunteer during shifts that work best for your schedule. “The Food Rescue Hero app will be a huge step forward for Lakeshore Food Rescue.

In just over a month, volunteers using the app have rescued over 6,800 pounds of food, which translates to over 5,700 meals! Read the full article here!
