Unlike other food rescue organizations, our dedicated volunteers and staff work with grocery stores and local farms to bring more fresh, healthy, and nourishing foods to those in need.
We also reduce food waste by cooking twice a week and preserving produce before it has a chance to spoil.

” With the help of Second Chance Foods, I have been able to feed our family. The deliveries have been amazing, delicious and nutritious.
Second Chance even sent flowers, which made us all smile.
Words cannot express the love and gratitude I have in my heart for your organization. ”
-Mother of Two, ages 10 and 11
Passionate volunteers create these meals and many others in our kitchen to make healthy eating easy and delicious! Our network of food pantries and soup kitchens ensure they reach families and individuals in need.

Thats why, every day of the week, our volunteers collect donations of healthy food from grocery stores instead of letting this usable food go to waste.
The Hudson Valley is rich with organic farms who are often unable to harvest all the food from their fields. Second Chance Foods' volunteers make sure this produce is harvested and reaches the tables of those in need.
Our volunteers transform donated food into nourishing meals that are also delicious. The kitchen helps extend the life of fresh ingredients, and make healthy eating easy!
Fresh foods are vital to emotional and physical health. That’s why we focus on providing nutrient dense foods to those in need of food assistance.
