Partners for Hunger Relief



Partners for Hunger Relief bolsters food recovery efforts in San Diego and serves a broad base of agencies and people. Perfectly good nutritious food that was otherwise once being thrown away now feeds thousands of hungry people each year.

Today, Partners for Hunger Relief

Recovers and distributes millions of lbs of food annually
Provides most of the food for SDRM clients to keep costs down
Shares thousands of pounds of food at no cost
This food is given to a network of non-profit feeding programs / food pantries throughout San Diego County and Nothern Mexico

How We Do This:

Food is donated by:

Retail markets
Food distributors
Catered events
Qualcomm Stadium
San Diego Convention Center
Restaurants & fast food franchises
Schools & Universities
Hospitals

Our drivers, who are certified food handlers, go out in refrigerated trucks to collect donated food and prepared meals. The items are then delivered directly to partner agencies or to a central distribution hub, the San Diego Rescue Mission warehouse.

Refrigeration units at the San Diego Rescue Mission warehouse store nutritious and perishable food or prepared meals that are then distributed to partner agencies.
