Compassionate Scholars

Frequently, edible food and other goods are being thrown away while shelters and food banks across Orange County struggle to feed people who are in need. Don't Waste Food Project aims to reduce food waste by collecting individual and business donations and delivering them to Orange County Rescue Mission (OCRM). We are beginning with collecting food donations as well as other items from individuals, including but not limited to students, families, neighborhoods, and friends. The project will gradually expand to build partnerships with local businesses such as bakeries, grocery stores, and more for leftover pickups. 

Everyone can make a difference with what they already have extra; the project is open to all student members who want to help their community in a direct and achievable way.
