Westchester County & the Bronx

Feed People.
Not Landfills.

Second Serve NY rescues fresh surplus food from local businesses and redistributes it to community refrigerators, food pantries, shelters, and trusted nonprofit organizations serving people facing food insecurity throughout Westchester County and the Bronx.

How it works

Three steps. Real impact.

01
1

You have surplus food

At the end of your shift, you have extra bread, produce, prepared meals, or packaged goods that would otherwise be tossed.

02
2

We pick it up — or you drop it off

Schedule a pickup or drop off at a Friendly Fridge location. We work around your hours, not the other way around.

03
3

It reaches neighbors in need

Your surplus food goes directly to community fridges where anyone who needs a meal can take one — no questions asked.

The problem we're solving

Food insecurity is real. Food waste is fixable.
