We aspire to a world where everyone has access to healthy food, and no food goes to waste.
We deliver meals to homes in the Princeton, NJ area, and to nonprofit organizations located throughout New Jersey.
Share My Meals works with a variety of food donors to recover prepared meals and deliver to local families and community partners.
Share My Meals is powered by its wonderful volunteers! We welcome volunteers who can serve as drivers, delivering meals to our neighbors in need.
An innovative new alliance, the Meal Recovery Coalition (MRC) brings together New Jersey corporations, hospitals and educational institutions, government entities, nonprofit organizations and individual volunteers, to work together to make meal recovery the norm in New Jersey.
More than 994,000 New Jersey residents are food-insecure. At the same time, 1.9 million tons of food are wasted each year across the state – that’s almost 1 pound per person per day!
Share My Meals collects surplus meals from food service providers and distributes them directly to local families in need at their homes or through our network of community partners. We work with local food donors to provide high quality, nutritious meals on a flexible basis.
We believe that inclusion and innovation will help drive a stronger community and sustainable future.
Food waste is a significant contributor to climate change. When we recover food, we keep it out of landfills, preventing greenhouse gas emissions. We distribute these delicious, nutritious meals to families in need.
We have developed an innovative solution to optimize logistics and offer high safety standards. We track meal recovery and delivery in real time and can dynamically report our food donors' positive impact.
Our Community Inclusion Program incorporates the talents and skills of people from the community that we serve into our daily operations. This approach builds a stronger program and increases economic opportunities.
