About Us

FoodSharing Kenya is a community-powered, sustainability-driven organization committed to ending hunger, reducing food waste, and promoting equitable access to nutritious food across Kenya.

We rescue safe, surplus food from farms, supermarkets, restaurants, events, homes, and institutions — then redistribute it directly to students, children, mothers, seniors, and vulnerable families who need it most.

We also operate FoodSharing Booths in universities and colleges, ensuring that no student skips a meal due to financial challenges. Our work combines food security, climate action, and environmental sustainability, creating a zero-waste, zero-hunger future for Kenya.

Our Goal

To build Kenya’s first nationwide model of food recovery, redistribution, and community sharing, ensuring that:

• Less edible food is wasted
  
  

• More people access nutritious meals
  
  

• Students and vulnerable families can live, learn, and thrive
  
  

• Communities adopt sustainable and climate-friendly consumption habits
  
  

• Food waste is reduced to fight climate change
  
  

Who We Serve

1. University & College Students

We support students facing food insecurity through FoodSharing Booths stocked with safe, surplus food.

2. Children & Adolescents (0–16 years)

We deliver rescued food to children in informal settlements, schools, and community feeding programs.

3. Pregnant & Lactating Mothers

We provide nutritious rescued foods for mothers who struggle to afford balanced meals.

4. Vulnerable Families & Individuals

Including low-income households, informal workers, and people facing temporary or long-term food insecurity.

5. Seniors (50+ Years)

Elderly individuals receive regular food support, especially those without family or financial assistance.

6. People With Diet-Related Conditions

Through partners, we support individuals managing diabetes, hypertension, and other nutrition-sensitive conditions.

How We Work

Food Rescue

We collect safe, edible surplus food daily from businesses, farms, and households.

Food Redistribution

Through community hubs, university booths, and verified drop-off points, we ensure food reaches the right people with dignity and efficiency.

Community Engagement & Education

We run campaigns, workshops, and student-led programs to promote responsible consumption, zero waste, and climate action.

Partnerships

We collaborate with county governments, universities, corporates, food businesses, farmers, non-governmental organizations and environmental networks to scale our impact.

Why Our Work Matters

• Kenya loses up to 40% of all food post-harvest
  
  

• Millions of people — including students — struggle with hunger
  
  

• Food waste contributes significantly to methane emissions and climate change
  
  

• Vulnerable communities are the most affected by rising food prices and climate shocks
  
  

FoodSharing Kenya transforms these challenges into opportunity — rescuing food, reducing waste, protecting the environment, and restoring dignity to communities.
