About Us
About Us
foodsharing Kenya is a non profit, youth-led, community-powered organization leading food rescue in Kenya and promoting food sharing in Kenya to reduce food waste and fight hunger.
We rescue safe, surplus food from farms, supermarkets, restaurants, markets, and events, and redistribute it to vulnerable communities including students, children, and low-income families.
Our work goes beyond feeding people. We contribute to climate action by reducing food waste in landfills, support zero poverty by improving access to food, and promote responsible consumption and production through sustainable food systems.
Through initiatives like foodsharing Booths in universities, we are building a future where no food goes to waste and no one goes hungry.

A Child You Can Help Today
One meal can change everything
In many underserved communities in Kenya, many children go an entire day without a proper meal.
When we arrive with food, everything changes.
Smiles return. Energy comes back. Hope is restored.
For some, this is the only full meal they will have that day.
This is more than food.
It’s dignity. It’s care. It’s a second chance.
And you can be part of it.
