Food rescues are simple and flexible. Using the Vancouver Food Runners app, volunteers can claim a rescue that fits their schedule and transport surplus food from a local business to a nearby nonprofit organization. Most rescues take 30–60 minutes and can be done by car, bike, or on foot depending on the location.
Every rescue helps reduce food waste while supporting organizations that provide meals and food access across Metro Vancouver. With 40+ food rescues happening in Burnaby every week, there are lots of opportunities to get involved!
Volunteering with Vancouver Food Runners is one of the easiest ways to make an immediate difference in your community.
