Every day in Louisville, hundreds of people are experiencing chronic hunger and food insecurity. 

And every day, thousands of pounds of still-good food is thrown into the landfill. 

Feed Louisville makes the connection between the two.  Our work is at the intersection of hunger relief and food rescue. 

Our team is able to divert food from being thrown away and repurpose it into beautiful meals to send out to our unhoused and food insecure community. Our food rescue work allows restaurants, caterers and other licensed food producers to donate viable, safely held food that we incorporate into our daily production of hundreds of hot and hearty meals. 

These meals go directly to the streets or people experiencing food insecurity each day, 

through our network of human services agencies serving the unhoused and food insecure community.


Our work has impact in three ways:

  1. Our human services partners are empowered with one of the most critical resources in their work: taking care of hunger so they can address the other challenges facing our unhoused and food insecure neighbors here in Louisville. 
  2. Our food rescue partners are relieved to see their hard work not go into the landfill, and instead see it used to feed people who need it. 
  3. And most importantly, the people who eat these meals every day are getting food that is nutrient dense, culturally thoughtful and made with a lot of love.  


For some, it may be the only meal they eat today.
