Fiscal Year 2024 Annual Report

July 1, 2023-June 30, 2024

Food Recovery Network (FRN) now mobilizes 8,000+ college students and food system partners in fighting hunger and building a more sustainable and equitable food system, while creating the necessary changes to protecting our planet in the process. That means we’ve doubled the movement since implementing our strategic framework FRN10X in 2020 (4,000→8,000 people). This years annual report highlights the combined efforts and success that has brought us to this foundational moment.

Our 2024 Audited Financials and 2024 990 will be available, pending final review.

FISCAL YEAR 2023 ANNUAL REPORT

July 1, 2022- June 30, 2023

This annual report highlights what we accomplished this year, and we accomplished a lot. We highlight the beginnings of our data-driven focus on how to feed more people faster. FRN plays a critical role in ending hunger and our results-count framework produces outsized positive results. Our results-count framework, which we call FRN10X, is visualized below. It is a tall order to recover surplus food to feed everyone who is hungry. To accomplish this goal in our lifetimes, we must work together, which is why partnerships are a key strategy of FRN10X. We hope you will envision yourself as part of our mission and accept our invitation to join and support us in this work.

FISCAL YEAR 2022 ANNUAL REPORT

July 1, 2021- June 30, 2022

Roots are powerful systems hidden to the everyday eye, extending far below what we can see. Strong and healthy roots can lead to thriving gardens, while rotting roots create difficult terrain that prevents plants and crops from growing. We cannot thrive without a powerful, communicative, intentional root system supporting us from underneath and supporting the overall health of our communities.

This year, at Food Recovery Network (FRN), we’ve been doing some root management. We envision a future where no one in the U.S. is hungry. We know that feeding people experiencing hunger and food insecurity isn’t enough. We must get to the root of the problem by addressing the main issues that cause hunger – economic insecurity, climate change, and ultimately a fractured food system which makes it easier to waste food and is designed to optimize profit.

 
 

FISCAL YEAR 2021 ANNUAL REPORT

July 1, 2020- June 30, 2021

Food Recovery Network (FRN) aims to feed every person who is experiencing hunger in the United States. Even when our world fundamentally shifted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the dedication of our students never faltered. Our network of 4,000 students, alumni, dining providers, national partners and local businesses recovered food, which would otherwise have gone to waste, to help feed the nearly 42 million people who experienced hunger this year.
