Did you know that Feeding San Diego estimates that 1 in 4 San Diegans experience food insecurity? 🍽️ 🛒     Our nonprofit partner, Jewish Family Service of San Diego, works to address this problem through innovative programs like the Corner Market store, which offers a free food shopping experience for clients. We’re proud to support this work by donating healthy, unused food and snacks every Friday from our company’s cafés. To date, we have served more than 1,725 meals and diverted over 2,070 pounds of food waste from local landfills – demonstrating what’s good for the environment is also good for the community. 🌍💚 We’re committed to diverting 100% of organic waste from landfills by 2030! ♻️🌱 A huge thank you to the team that collaborated to create this simple, yet innovative solution. 🙌 Eurest #FoodInsecurity #EndHunger #CommunitySupport
