What they do
Chicago Food Rescue is A Nonprofit Organization Whose Goal is to Bridge The Gap Between Food Waste and Food Insecurity In Chicago and The Surrounding Areas. We Aim to Make Healthy Food Accessible to Anyone In Need Free of Charge Wherever They Are. Volunteers Will Deliver Food Using The Chicago Food Rescue App Developed By Food Rescue Hero. This Technology Seamlessly Manages The Process of Transporting Fresh Food That Would Otherwise Be Wasted From Food Donors Directly to Recipients Using Volunteers for Transportation. We Believe That No One Should Go Hungry When There is An Abundance of Food Available.
Should I give to this charity?
Basic public information is available, but it is not enough to judge how well donations are used. Ask the charity for a current spending breakdown and results.
Plain answer: A tax form cannot prove that a charity is doing good. It can show how the charity says it spent its money—and point out questions you should ask.

Money made simple
Ask these three easy questions
- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
