Keep the pickup
Fuel, drivers, and scheduling that help good food leave a business before it goes to waste.
Help good food reach someone
Your gift can help turn extra food into someone's dinner.
In Oklahoma, about 1 in 4 children - roughly 224,000 kids - lives in a household that cannot reliably put dinner on the table.
At the same time, restaurants, grocers, bakeries, and caterers have good food left over. Your gift helps NEEDS connect the two by helping safe food get picked up, shared, and supported by local community partners.
Give once or monthly. Review the available gift amount and frequency options in the secure Zeffy checkout before payment. NEEDS does not set a recurring gift by default.
