App Description
Careit is a food donation marketplace that matches any organization with extra edible food to a nearby nonprofit. Nonprofits find donations in their area that match their food requirements and set up a pickup or drop off with the donor. All donation details are saved for easy record keeping.
Food donation has never been easier! Whether you’re a business, nonprofit, or municipality, Careit can help you keep our communities fed and our environment greener.
LESS HUNGER
1 in 8 Americans don’t know where they are going to get their next meal. Careit connects the nation's most inclusive network of nonprofits and food generators, so more food is donated to feed our most vulnerable.
LESS GREENHOUSE GAS
Did you know Americans waste over 30% of the food they grow? Food in landfills breaks down into the potent greenhouse gas, methane. Not to mention the wasted water, land, transportation, and labor that results from wasted food.
MORE SAVINGS
Donated food can be used for tax deductions. It saves the amount of money spent on waste hauling. And in certain areas, it ensures compliance with new environmental policies that could result in fines.
