Volunteer

Whether you have an hour a day or an hour a month to volunteer, you can make a real impact on the lives of your neighbors – and on the health of our planet.

Volunteers recover food from restaurants, corporate cafeterias, and farms and distribute those meals to our neighbors in need.  We are looking for volunteers in the following counties:  Essex, Middlesex, Mercer, Morris, Union, and Somerset.

To discuss opportunities, please contact Rona MacInnes.

Donate Food

Donating meals is an easy way to protect our planet and help local communities access healthy meals. Share My Meals specializes in the recovery of prepared meals and has designed a program that ensures that your donated are delivered to families following high-standard food safety guidelines.

Our process is easy, flexible, and free to meal donors. Donors help by portioning out their surplus meals into our reusuable containers, scanning them with an easy to use app that notifies us they are ready for pick up, and refrigerating them until we pick them up. That’s it!  

Share My Meals provides donors with monthly dashboards to see their direct impact on their local community and the environment.

Food Donation: Liability Protections

Federal and state laws provide liability protection for food donors as long as they comply with food safety standards and donate in good faith. 

Share My Meals has developed a food donation recovery protocol and the technological tools to ensure high safety standards from pick up to delivery. We work with donors to deliver donated meals safely to our families and partner organizations.
