Bill Campbell is one of approximately 25,000 volunteers that works with Food Rescue Hero, an organization that uses a smartphone app to coordinate deliveries of unused foods from restaurants and grocers to non-profits and community centers. I heard about, you know, hunger and food, waste and all that. But I really wasn t experiencing it, Campbell said.
Since 2016, Food Rescue Hero has redirected more than 48 million pounds of food to those in need. Campbell himself has completed 455 food rescues since joining as a volunteer in September 2019.
