Crowdfeeding
[crowd-feed-ing] noun
An everyday system for food access where donors fund meals, restaurants serve them, and everybody eats.
When you give through Bridge Meals, that money funds free meals at local restaurants, available to anyone. They're paid for every meal served, money that covers food costs, staff time, and local vendors.
We don't take a cut from meal funds. 100% of donations go to the restaurants.
Fund meals todayFood insecurity impacts 47 million people across the United States. We believe a solution already exists in every neighborhood in the country: local restaurants.
