Waste Not
So perishable food won't go to waste
Waste Not occupies a very unique niche in our community. We are not a food bank, yet we feed thousands upon thousands of hungry people every day. Our trucks and drivers are on the road six days per week, beginning at 6:30am, collecting an average of 6,000 pounds of excess perishable food daily from restaurants, resorts, caterers, grocers and various food purveyors - food that would otherwise be thrown away. We deliver the food the same day to more than 100 diverse agencies that feed the hungry including schools, after-school programs, daycare centers, rehabilitation centers, transition homes and senior facilities.

- To better serve our stock and crypto donors, we host giving pages (like this one) so they can donate securities and crypto to other nonprofits from their DonateStock account.
- As this specific nonprofit has not yet registered with us, the donation will be processed and paid by Donatestock Charitable, Inc, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
- Once the gift is initiated, we will contact the nonprofit beneficiary to inform them of the gift and arrange payment.
- After the gift is received, we will provide a tax receipt to the donor and send the proceeds, gift details and donor information to the nonprofit beneficiary.
- Payments are normally sent via ACH within 2 weeks of receiving the shares or crypto. If we cannot reach the nonprofit beneficiary within 30 days, we will remit payment by check.
