FEED IT FORWARD is a non-for-profit charitable organization with two goals: to feed Canadians who are food insecure, and to reduce food waste. Their mission is to make a difference in the lives of fellow Canadians who are in need of assistance with securing nutritious food and regular balanced meals.

As of May 2020, FEED IT FORWARD has served over 650 000 meals and has saved over 1.1 MILLION pounds of food from landfills. Chef Jagger Gordon launched Feed It Forward in 2014 because he could not bear the copious food waste created each time he catered an event. After a military career that included service in 32 countries, Jagger attended culinary school in Toronto, then worked alongside some great chefs. These experiences — service to others, an appreciation of our global interconnectedness, and joy in food preparation — were the seeds of Feed It Forward. Since its launch, Feed It Forward has fed hundreds of thousands of people by rescuing food from restaurants, cafes and bakeries, as well as unsold grocery store food.
