“To whom it may concern, hello, my name is Nicole Souza, and I am currently a junior…”. I reread my email several times, making sure everything was formal and I had zero grammatical errors. The first step in bringing a Food Recovery Network chapter to Marist was to contact Food Recovery Network’s national headquarters about inquiring to begin the process. I closed my browser, and over the next few days, Food Recovery Network and its’ mission lingered in the back of my mind, and eventually I decided to take action.Ĭold-calling wasn’t exactly my strong suit.

I wondered to myself, Why doesn’t Marist College have a system like this on campus? What happened to all of the leftovers Sodexo has at the end of the day? Does that get thrown away too? I thought about all of those dishes and plates full of food on the dining rack in our school’s main dining hall, all about to be dumped in the trash. I was already in the mindset that wasting perfectly edible food was a huge taboo, and here was a non-profit organization whose mission was to fight food waste. This was a cause primarily focused on recovering perishable food and bringing it to those in need. After navigating through the site’s different tabs and content, something sparked inside me. Curious, I clicked on the link and it brought me to their national website. As I got to the bottom of the email, I saw a small blurb describing an organization called Food Recovery Network. The DailySkimm is a quick-read email that gives a breakdown of the global news. It was my spring semester during my sophomore year of college, and I was cleaning out my inbox. It all started when I was reading the DailySkimm email I get every weekday morning.
