How about a little feel good Friday story? A few months ago, @bellisio_foods_jackson, a frozen food manufacturer in Jackson, OH sent an email to our foundation offering their help because they learned about our efforts and work to reduce food insecurity.
Our dedicated Board Member, Julie Richardson, connected with Bellisio and she and Robin Burrow visited their plant in Jackson. It turns out that Bellisio had food waste that would be great for food rescuing. Yesterday, @lasoupecincinnati picked up their first rescue from Bellisio to turn that “waste” into something beautiful and nutritious for those most in need. From vegetables to protein to herbs and spices, La Soupe received more than 2000 lbs of goodness!
