Brightwater wants to partner in order to further Food Recovery efforts in NWA

Brightwater is hoping to partner with businesses and nonprofits to help end hunger and reduce food waste in the Northwest Arkansas area. Whether you already have a food waste program started or have nothing initiated, they are hoping to create more connections and establish greater efficiency. 

Brightwater uses a technology that allows volunteer drivers to take excess food from businesses to nonprofits. Their plan is to grow the existing network between nonprofits and businesses in the area.

Each year, businesses spend about $52 billion on food never eaten. In Arkansas, about 1 in 5 families are food insecure. Brightwater would love for you and your team to help change this. 

Email or call Lucas Peiser at (479) 957-7580 or lucas@gocopia.com for more information on how you can partner with Brightwater.
