About FoodLink

FoodLink is a community-driven platform that bridges the gap between food surplus and those in need. By connecting food donors with individuals and families facing food insecurity, we reduce waste and ensure access to meals for everyone. Through easy-to-use listings, location-based searches, and helpful resources, FoodLink empowers communities to share food and create a compassionate support network.
