According to the Mayo Clinic, "The work that volunteers provide is essential to everyday activities, giving volunteers a sense of purpose, especially when giving their time and talent in the areas they find meaningful. Older volunteers experience greater increases in life satisfaction and self-esteem."
If you like to cook, F4 offers a great opportunity to share your talents by preparing casseroles for pickup and delivery to a shelter.

Want to volunteer on your schedule? F4 will pick up and deliver your frozen meal. Let's roll America and create that world without Hunger!
I have been involved with F4 since 2015 and I couldn't be prouder of the progress we have made towards our vision of Creating a World Without Hunger! F4 connects sources of excess food with places that will serve the food to those in the community who do not know from where their next meal will come. F4 does this with integrity and love for all people. This is a great organization that is worthy of your time and financial donations which will help Create a World Without Hunger!!
I have seen Derek and his team in action and it is a wonder to behold. All are very pleasant and extremely efficient. I especially appreciate both points as some non-profits I've seen do neither. Well done Derek!
F4 seeks innovative ways to connect surplus food from events, restaurants, donors into the places and to people that need it the most. I’ve donated to them for years and will continue to do so.
F4's support of our pantry is so helpful to our clients that need food. Thanks to F4, our agency is able to serve more people because of the donations that F4 introduces us to. The variety is great for our clients; milk, gluten free, produce. F4 has been an amazing partner for us. :)

I have been active as a board member of F4 for 11 months and have found that their vision of ending hunger and food insecurity to be a noble cause. In this country their is no reason for a child or their families to wake up or go to sleep hungry. God has provided His divine providence over this nation since its inception and for this reason we have been and will always be a beacon of hope to the world and blessed beyond belief. We must show the world that we will never allow our citizens to suffer from hunger or any basic needs. We must always remember the words of our Lord from Matthew Chapter 25 v 35-36. For I was hungry and you fed me.....
I have been on the F4 Team for almost a year. I have been impressed with how this organization embraces their mission of eradicating hunger. I have personally witnessed how food rescue has connected businesses to support those in most need in many communities.
I have followed F4 for many years. This organization does great work and has had a very positive impact on food rescue and feeding those who are food insecure. They serve local communities throughout PA. and the US, and to date, have provided over 4M lbs. of food to families in need.

This is a great group of people aligned around a solid mission and ambitious vision for the future. I joined the F4 board in January, 2021 and have learned a tremendous amount about food insecurity at the global, national, and local level. F4's unique position and model allows us to very quickly and efficiently make a direct and immediate impact on local and regional food insecurity while providing value to both the recipient and donor communities.
F4 not only is great organization to work for, but I love that I get to give back to those in need EVERYDAY! What a wonderful organization! Such an easy concept of feeding the hungry with food that would have been otherwise thrown away. My experience working with F4 is not only rewarding but I also get to see tremendous, positive, outcomes that are life changing for so many in need. I am blessed to be a part of the F4 family!

If you’re looking to support a good, local, worthy cause look no further.

F4 is a non-profit organization dedicated to crushing hunger. Food insecurity is an increasing problem throughout the United States & it exists in all types of populations. F4 works with organizations to hold non-perishable food drives & rescue perishable items. We then connect the donating organizatioins to food banks, & food pantries within their geographic locations. Keeping it local helps create relationships between the donators & recipients of the food.
From the time I was introduced to the amazing work of F4, I have been amazed at the impact one man's vision has been able to have on the community and world. That vision has grown beyond one man and spread to impact thousands to reach the goal of seeing a world free from hunger. As a professional in the field and founder of a nonprofit myself I have to admire the work of F4 and all it has accomplished. I hope others join to contribute to this organization so we can see a world that is free from hunger.
I founded this organization officially in the spring of 2011. It has been my life's work to create a strategy to eradicate world hunger through our foundation. We serve to create hunger awareness connecting sources of food to recipient agencies that have the ability to serve hungry people in need! Thank you for your support and belief in the work we are doing to end world hunger!
