Nobody Goes Hungry
A NONPROFIT PROGRAM OF NW FRUIT RESCUE
We turn community resources into nutritious, shelf-stable dry stew mixes for people experiencing hunger—combining bulk ingredients, volunteers and partnerships with food banks and hunger relief agencies to make every dollar and every resource go further.
Small Cost. Big Impact.
By combining bulk purchasing, donated and rescued ingredients, 100% volunteer labor and community partnerships,
Nobody Goes Hungry can turn modest resources into a remarkable number of servings.
90,000 SERVINGS last year
Produced and distributed from
7-1/2 tons of dry ingredients
Production cost per 8-ounce serving when we have to purchase all the ingredients
14-16¢
Direct cash production cost per serving when major ingredients are donated, rescued or externally funded
4-5¢
Why the difference in price? The 14-16¢ figure reflects the cost of producing a serving when we purchase the ingredients. When they are available from other sources, our out-of-pocket production cost falls to about 4-5¢ per serving, primarily for bags, labels and seasoning.
