Every year, tons of edible food end up in landfills—while many in our communities struggle to put meals on the table. Join us to learn how three innovative Food Rescue and Diversion programs are turning this imbalance into opportunity: redirecting surplus food from the waste stream to those who need it most. Our featured speakers will share their insights.

·      Shoba Reginald (Food Link)

These initiatives don’t just reduce waste—they build stronger, more resilient communities by tackling environmental and food security challenges together.
