The Bellarmine Food Recovery Network (BFRN) is a partnership between Sodexo and Brown Leadership Community (BLC) students with the common goal of decreasing food waste in our dining hall and feeding those in need in our community. We are a student run program led by our directors Austin Adam, Jessica Bacallao Delaney Deely, and Corbin McGuire. Together the directors and BLC students package and t
ransport leftover food from the University Dining Hall (UDH) to local shelters and organizations in the community. Our current two cooperating organizations are Volunteers of America and Wayside Christian Mission in Louisville. More info:
