Join Fresh Alliance 
Fresh Alliance provides meat, dairy and other
nutritious fresh foods
What is Fresh Alliance?
Fresh Alliance addresses a key initiative of OFB's 2003-07 strategic
plan: to increase meat, dairy and produce donations. It's an important
program because it provides a previously untapped source of high-quality,
nutritious food for people who are hungry.
Every weekday morning, OFB drivers pick up perishable
food that is close to the time that it can no longer be sold from
Fred Meyer, Albertsons, QFC, Wild Oats and Whole Foods stores.
Teams of volunteers working in OFB's Perishables
Repack Room quickly sort and repack the food. Frequently, within
24 hours of the time the food leaves the store, it arrives at
local hunger-relief agencies.
The program is expanding.
New stores are joining Fresh Alliance-- both locally and statewide.
We expect the project to recover 1.5-million pounds of meat, dairy
and other refrigerated products.
