CHARITABLE OUTREACH

Second Servings’ mission is to alleviate hunger and reduce waste in Houston by rescuing perfectly edible surplus food, and delivering it directly to local nonprofits. As the only perishable food rescue organization in Houston, they reach over 250,000 people annually, delivering high-quality, fresh food to over 150 Houston-area shelters, soup kitchens, low-income housing and other nonprofits from our generous donors, such as distributors, retailers, hotels, sports venues, etc. This perfectly edible food helps nourish abused women and children, at-risk youth, veterans, adults in recovery, disabled homeless seniors, low-income single adults and families and many others. Delivering the food at no cost allows their nonprofit partners to save a significantl on food budgets, enabling them to serve more people, provide additional services and pay overhead costs.
