Food Rescue Partners with Hillcroft Services

Published Friday, February 3, 2012

The Indianapolis based non-profit Food Rescue has found a way to reduce the amount of unused food that is thrown away by restaurants in ten Indiana cities. The relationships Food Rescue has established with restaurants and volunteers provides thousands of pounds of food to those in need through partnerships with several different organizations.

Hillcroft Services is very grateful to be one of the organizations in Muncie that has partnered with Food Rescue to “save” food. The Food Rescue partnerships in Muncie not only serve clients of Hillcroft, but also provide a great resource for other local nonprofits.

Food Rescue’s most recent food saving endeavor came in the form of 37,000 pounds of cookies donated by Maplehurst Bakeries. Hillcroft one of four agencies to receive nearly 10,000 pounds of snicker doodle and oatmeal raisin cookies. Hillcroft’s portion of the rescued cookies will be divided up to be shared with other local non-profit organizations and used by Hillcroft’s programs.
