How It Works

A Simple, Structured Food Recovery Flow

Second Serving connects surplus food with people who can use it — quickly, safely, and with clear accountability at every step.

From surplus to service

1

Identify Surplus Food

Organizations, businesses, and partners identify available surplus food that can be safely recovered instead of discarded.

2

Post a Donation

Basic details are submitted including food type, quantity, pickup timing, and location so availability is clear.

3

Claim the Pickup

A volunteer, partner, or receiving organization claims the listing and confirms pickup intent.

4

Complete the Handoff

The pickup is completed, logged, and the listing closes with a visible status trail.
