Food Runners Donors

Have you ever wondered what happened to the excess molasses glazed cocktail ribs at the last gala or catered event you attended? Companies like Melon's Catering, Patina Catering, Global Gourmet and many more call Food Runners. Paula Le Duc Fine Catering called Food Runners following the San Francisco premier of Pixar's "Ratatouille." Food Runners picked up over five hundred mouth watering Croques de Monsieur sandwiches that would have otherwise gone in the garbage.

What do you suppose grocery stores do with bananas that develop too many freckles, or crisp, juicy apples that get a bruise from sitting at the bottom of the display? Stores like Whole Foods and Trader Joe's call Food Runners.

Were you in the office the day that lunch meeting for forty got cancelled after the gourmet Indian buffet had already been delivered? When it happened at Calvary Asset Management, they called Food Runners.

All over greater San Francisco, businesses that care about alleviating waste and ending hunger are calling Food Runners. Food Runners volunteers happily pick up their excess perishable and prepared foods and deliver it immediately to local shelters and food programs in need.

Photography studios like Michael Lamotte or Marshall Gordon do it. Cafes like Peet's and Starbucks do it. Restaurants like Kokkari, Aqua, Frisson do it by joining Food Runners Planned Overage Program in which a restaurant prepares a main course for 25-30 people each week specifically for Food Runners to deliver to a shelter.
