"We tried other apps but found the Food Rescue Hero (FRH) app technology to be far and away superior. It was built by a food recovery organization for food rescue specifically. The support that comes with the FRH tech team + the FRH National Network is invaluable!”

“The ease of getting started, whether you are an organization that has run food rescue for a long time or if you are newer to food rescue, a lot of the steps are there in the app and you’re able to just use them out of the box.”

HasanWe Don't Waste

“We chose Food Rescue Hero because we were at a point where…we knew we needed to streamline our operations, and we knew we needed better data. We vetted a couple of other options…We were extremely excited to find Food Rescue Hero and to find this network that already existed.”

HeatherKentucky Harvest

“I recommend Food Rescue Hero and the use of the app because it’s very user friendly, the network is so warm and inviting and educational…If you’re looking for sustainable measures, if you’re looking for consistent growth, if you’re looking for support, I think Food Rescue Hero is the best.”

"We chose to use the Food Rescue Hero platform at the Food Bank of Delaware because it was more cost-effective for us to drive growth with smaller food donations."
