In America, 34 million people may not know where they will get their next meal. Olive Garden is proud to be a long-standing partner of Feeding America®, the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization.
As part of our support, we are working to enhance mobile food pantry programs in communities where food insecurity rates are disproportionately high. Over the course of three years, we have helped add 35 trucks across 35 food banks in 18 states. These trucks are critical to increasing access to nutritious food for those who need it most.
In addition to our work with Feeding America… Every Olive Garden restaurant participates in the Harvest program, which has been in place for 20 years. Each day, restaurants collect high-quality surplus food that was not served to guests and donate it on a weekly basis to local nonprofit partners. Since 2003, more than 49 million pounds of food have been donated, amounting to more than 41 million meals.
