*** SERVING BERGEN, ESSEX, HUDSON, MORRIS, & PASSAIC COUNTIES, NJ REGION ***
Powered by Food Rescue Hero

Table to Table I-Rescue is a volunteer-driven app that helps fight hunger and reduce food waste in New Jersey. While nearly 1 million New Jersey residents struggle with food insecurity, 3 billion pounds of food go to waste each year in our state.

With Table to Table I-Rescue, volunteers can rescue fresh, healthy food and deliver it to those in need in Northern NJ, including Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Morris, and Passaic counties.

In less than an hour, you can pick up donated food from local grocery stores, restaurants, and cafeterias and drop it off to community partners serving people facing food insecurity. You can volunteer as often as you like-whether it’s daily, weekly, or even just once.

Keep an eye out for the new Donate button, designed to make it easier than ever to support your community and drive real environmental impact. Your financial contribution of any size is essential fuel that helps get good food to the people who need it most while reducing waste and protecting the planet. 2.2.2 10/27/2025 - It used to be too easy to drop a template—that yellow button was hard to resist. Now it’s slightly more difficult to inadvertently drop a recurring rescue when you just want to request a sub.
- We’ve eradicated the last vestige of no-contact imperatives in our app. (We still love our introverted volunteers!)
- Our app went rogue, practically extorting you for notification permissions in exchange for access to certain rescues. Our engineers have successfully neutralized the threat.
