Powerful partnerships, lasting impact
Our work is made possible by partners committed to supporting our mission. Together, we expand access to nutritious meals, support local restaurants, and strengthen communities.
PARTNERSHIP HIGHLIGHTS
U.S. Foods led Rethink’s expansion into Chicago with a major cash donation. Working hand-in-hand, we’ve built an incredible cohort of restaurant partners across the city — from the Loop to the South Side to Evanston — preparing meals for their local communities.
Since 2018, Whole Foods has strengthened our food rescue program by donating a van and providing regular in-kind food contributions from multiple retail locations accross NYC. Their employees also volunteer regularly at our Sustainable Community Kitchen, helping transform surplus food into meals for New Yorkers in need.
Alongside the Brooklyn Nets, New York Liberty and Hospital for Special Surgery, we launched the "Eat & Move Better" campaign. Together we hosted community giveback events with players and HSS nurses, launched in-arena activations to galvanize fans at Barclays Center and collaborated on various initiatives at HSS facilities, our Sustainable Community Kitchen and online.
Together with Chobani, we’re working to expand access to nutritious food for communities across New York City. Through initiatives like Chobani’s Let’s Eat Week and ongoing meal programs, our partnership has helped deliver over 46,000 meals to neighbors in need—engaging Chobani employees and community members in hands-on efforts to build a healthier, more equitable food system.
