Has your chapter thought about working with a food donor off-campus? Whether you're unable to recover surplus food on campus or you just want to increase your chapter’s impact, we’re thrilled to help you approach food businesses in your community to create longstanding partnerships. Below are some great resources to help you get started!
Webinar Recording
In this recorded webinar, FRN National and current student chapter leaders explain how to initiate relationships with food businesses outside of campus dining, and what you can do to maintain these partnerships over time. As you’ll hear in the webinar, you are just four steps away from working with new food donors!
Food Recovery Guide
Over the years, we’ve spoken with many students in our network about their partnerships with dining service providers and off-campus food donors. The key learnings and advice from fellow FRNds helped inform this thorough guide to help your chapter establish a food recovery program. There’s a lot to review, but the document is easy to navigate using the Table of Contents to find the information you need. It’s a great tool to help you start a food recovery program for the first time, or to refer back to when forming new relationships with food donors and partner agencies.
As always, if you have any questions about the material covered or if you’re experiencing specific challenges with food recovery please schedule a call with our team, text (240) 615-8813, or email us at programs@foodreccoverynetwork.org.
