LUM needs volunteers to “rescue” food from local restaurants, bakeries & grocery stores. LUM currently is partnering with Great Harvest Bread Co., Panera Bread, Starbucks, Fresh Thyme, Pay Less Super Market, and Target – West Lafayette to accept regular donations of their surplus food items. These items have been amazing additions to the LUM shelter, youth programs, and food pantries.

Volunteers needed a few days/evening a week. SIGN UP for a weekly pick up or just one. Pick up times vary from mornings, to evenings and weekends. LUM is also searching for a volunteer to coordinate this program. Email LUM if you’re interested (EMAIL).

Please help us save, gather and share food with our neighbors in need. It’s a win-win-win – RESCUE food, SHARE food & REDUCE food waste.
