Nourish Now Information

MISSION To solve two major social issues simultaneously: food waste & hunger. Nourish Now is a 501c3 nonprofit food bank, specialized in food recovery and providing donations from grocers, caterers, sporting venues, restaurants, bakeries, and additional food donors for the benefit of children, families, and seniors. Through our programs, viable food partners are identified, and donations of food is recovered and redistributed through our network. OUR STORY Nourish Now was founded by current Executive Director, Brett Meyers, after years of working the food service industry. He learned that 75 billion pounds of fresh food is wasted each year in the United States, while every day over 50 million people experience food insecurity. In May of 2011, Brett founded Nourish Now with the goal of making food waste and hunger each other’s solutions. By maintaining strong relationships with local philanthropic food providers, we have donated over 28 million pounds of food since our inception.
