NOFRC
Food should feed people,
not landfills.
NOFRC connects New Orleans and Jefferson Parish residents with food pantries, community fridges, free meals and other community resources while helping restaurants, businesses and residents donate surplus food through a volunteer-powered food rescue network.
Food right now shows 24/7 fridges and free pantries with no ID and no registration, plus the most recent reported availability.

An approved volunteer picks it up within the shared window.
STEP 3
A partner receives it
Food reaches a community organization that can use it.

No account is required to find food. We don't track who receives food. Availability comes from participating organizations and community reports and may change throughout the day.
