The Campus Kitchens Project
We partner with high schools, colleges and universities to share on-campus kitchen space, recover food from cafeterias and engage students as volunteers who prepare and deliver meals to the community.
Valley Proteins
At Valley Proteins, our business is based on the collection and recycling of inedible animal by-products from the food industry that would otherwise lead to environmental contamination. We provide prompt disposal services to restaurants, supermarkets, abattoirs and poultry processing facilities throughout the Mid-Atlantic, eastern and southwestern United States. Our clean and efficient conversion plants recycle these by-products (fat and bone trimmings; waste cooking oils; meat/poultry by-products) into high-energy feed fat and protein-rich meal products. These value-added ingredients provide the nutrients feed producers need to create superior animal feeds.
The Feeding America network of food banks works with agencies to provide food through pantry and meal programs, which help families, students and seniors facing hunger and poverty make ends meet.
