Donate to a Food Rescue Oranization

The City of Rancho Palos Verdes recommends working with a local organization to eliminate food waste and provide food to community members in need. There are many benefits of donating food from your business or home to a food rescue organization: 

• Contribute to a worthwhile cause that helps feed people.
• Reduce food waste, resource use, and greenhouse gas emissions.
• Comply with local mandates on waste including state law SB 1383. See edible food recovery requirements for SB 1383-defined commercial edible food generators. 
• Receive a tax deduction.
• Reduce waste disposal expenses.

Where Can I Make a Food Donation?

Please check the organization’s website for drop-off hours or call ahead to arrange a donation drop-off or pick-up.
