TURNING SURPLUS INTO SUSTENANCE
Approximately 400,000 Utahns experience food insecurity, while up to 40 % of purchased food goes to waste. WasteLess addresses both challenges by rescuing surplus food from businesses, grocery stores and caterers and redistributing it to those in need. With support from a 2024 GO Grant from the Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Foundation, their efforts saved 507,273 pounds of food— equivalent to 422,728 meals— helping to reduce waste and combat hunger statewide.
