LUM needs volunteers to “rescue” food from local restaurants, bakeries & grocery stores. LUM currently is partnering with Great Harvest Bread Co., Panera Bread, Starbucks, and Fresh Thyme 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.
