Sharing Excess is a national nonprofit that rescues and delivers surplus food to communities in need. Despite the fact that 40 million people in the country face food insecurity, nearly 40% of the nation's food supply goes to waste. We believe that surplus food can be a solution to food scarcity, and we are dedicated to connecting surplus food from grocery stores, restaurants, wholesalers, and farmers to organizations that address food insecurity. Our team is passionate about creating positive change in the world, and we embrace a fun, fast-paced, and innovative startup environment to achieve our goals. We believe that food should be a basic human right, and we are dedicated to improving access to excess food for all. Our efforts have already resulted in over 50 million meals to a network of nonprofits, food banks, and community organizations.
