Community Food Response - Rochester, MN "Rescuing excess prepared food for hungry Rochester families."

We are:
A non-profit, volunteer-led organization serving hungry adults and children in the Rochester area since 1993. Volunteer drivers collect food donations from restaurants, cafeterias, businesses and grocery stores and carry the food to our site. The food is sorted and then distributed to clients, free of charge, to take home or eat elsewhere. In addition to helping people in need, CFR helps reduce the amount of food waste generated by area restaurants and businesses. We serve:
Adults and families with children in need, many of whom do not qualify for other forms of food assistance. No one is turned away, and clients don’t have to provide financial or employment information to qualify for this program or receive food.

We are so proud to pass along extra quantities when we have it. Today we got a big load out to the Northgate apartments. I'm so appreciative of volunteers who take this on!

We had a lot of food come in today, so we're able to make extra bags and should be able to stay open longer than what it's been lately. FYI.
