The Food Recovery Program began in 2000 to
safely "recover" nutritious perishable and non-perishable foods
for distribution to agencies in the Coulee Region.
We now serve 48 programs in La Crosse and Vernon
Counties. We do not
serve individuals, but rather are the "umbrella" organization
that helps the hunger agencies serve individuals by providing
them surplus food items.
A list of agencies served can be seen
Here
Hundreds of thousands of pounds of food per year are recovered
from organizations and
distributed throughout the two counties to needy populations.
