More Than Just a Bagel: A Commitment to Sustainability and Human Kindness
Bagel Rescue is a beacon of hope in Atlanta, transforming surplus bagels into sustenance. Our mission is twofold: to rescue perfectly good food from going to waste and to nourish those experiencing hunger. With dedicated volunteers at our core, we bridge the gap between local bakeries and homeless shelters, creating a more sustainable and compassionate community.
About Us
Bagel Rescue is a non-profit organization supporting hunger relief in the metro Atlanta area by connecting restaurants with excess food - specifically bagels - to neighbors in need. Through generous donations from local bakeries, volunteers deliver bagels to food pantries, shelters, feeding programs, and community outreach efforts. Our goal is to reduce food waste and support hunger relief, one bagel at a time.
Impact At A Glance
A bagel is so much more than just a bagel...
Food is our most basic need and EVERYONE deserves to eat.While bagels won't sustain a full diet, they are an easily transportable, fresh food that offer nutrition, deliciousness, and dignity to those in need. We believe food should not be wasted when it can be put to good use feeding our community. Join Bagel Rescue on our mission to end the cycle of waste and support hunger relief.
