Supporting Food Rescue & Waste Reduction with CalRecycle

Porchlight Community Services is proud to receive partial funding from CalRecycle’s Food Waste Prevention and Rescue Grant Program. This support has allowed us to expand our food rescue efforts with a refrigerated van, invest in essential processing equipment, and promote sustainable solutions to reduce food waste in our community.

Through this grant, we can recover more edible food, extend its shelf life, and provide nutritious options to more people. It also helps us educate the community through workshops and events, like our DIY Beeswax Wrap Workshop, where we share practical ways to minimize food waste at home.

CalRecycle’s Food Waste Prevention and Rescue Grant Program is part of California’s larger effort to reduce organic waste in landfills, fight climate change, and improve food access. Learn more about this initiative here.
