Keep Austin Fed is a volunteer-based nonprofit organization that helps feed hungry people by rescuing perishable surplus food from commercial kitchens and grocery stores, thereby also keeping this food out of the waste stream. Keep Austin Fed provides pickup services for food donors, delivery services for recipient organizations, and this transportation conforms to industry food safety standards. Keep Austin Fed is a rapidly growing organization, obtaining 501c3 status in February of 2014 and rescuing over 375,000 pounds of food by the end of that year. In 2017, we rescued over 700,000 pounds. Volunteers enjoy the ability to make real impact in their immediate communities with commitments of about 1 hour of time. We can always use more volunteers (individuals or in groups) and food donations. Please see our web site for more details on what we are doing and how you can help.
