Donate to a Food Rescue Organization
The City of Torrance recommends working with a local organization to eliminate food waste and provide food to community members in need. Donating food from your business or home to a food rescue organization has many benefits, including:
- Contribute to a worthwhile cause that helps fight hunger
- Reduce food waste, resources, and greenhouse gas emissions
- Comply with state and local requirements including Senate Bill 1383. See edible food recovery requirements for SB 1383-defined commercial edible food generators.
- Donations are tax-deductible
- Reduce waste disposal costs
