CATERING FOR THE HOMELESS, INC.

​

Mission: To end hunger in America by utilizing food excess from catering companies, restaurants, schools, grocery stores and businesses for the homeless and food insecure.

​

Catering for the Homeless, Inc. utilizes food excess throughout the state of New York for the homeless, poor, and food insecure by connecting catering companies, grocery stores, schools, and restaurants with a growing network of soup kitchens, food pantries, homeless shelters, churches, nonprofits, and street outreach who are able to distribute this food waste to those in need in every way possible. 

 

Approximately 133 billion pounds of food goes to waste every year in America, while 50 million families in this country experience hunger on a regular basis. There is literally enough food being wasted that no one needs to be going hungry.

​

Catering for the Homeless, Inc. (CFTH) is the solution to hunger because our mission is to get that quality food that has been going to waste to anyone who needs it. Once the infrastructure is in place on the website, we will be able to expand this into a national program, and one day we hope that we may even be able do this work around the world.

​

National Good Samaritan Laws protect food donating. The law reads as follows:

​

​

Protection for Food Partners:

The Federal Bill Emerson Good Samaritan Food Donation Act

​

    Billions of pounds of food and groceries go to waste each year. To encourage companies and organizations to donate healthy food that would otherwise go to waste, they are protected from criminal and civil liability under the Good Samaritan Food Donation Act.​

​

     On October 1, 1996, President Clinton signed this act to encourage donation of food and grocery products to non-profit organizations for distribution to individuals in need. This law:

• Protects you from liability when you donate to a non-profit organization;

• Protects you from civil and criminal liability should the product donated in good faith later cause harm to the recipient;

• Standardizes donor liability exposure. You or your legal counsel do not need to investigate liability laws in 50 states; and

• Sets a floor of "gross negligence" or intentional misconduct for persons who donate grocery products. According to the new law, gross negligence is defined as "voluntary and conscious conduct by a person with knowledge (at the time of conduct) that the conduct is likely to be harmful to the health or well-being of another person."

The text of the bill itself follows:

The Bill Emerson Food Donation Act

One Hundred Fourth Congress of the United States of America

At the Second Session

Begun and held at the City of Washington on Wednesday, the third day of January, one thousand nine hundred and ninety-six.

​

     The GOOD SAMARITAN ACT: To encourage the donation of food and grocery products to nonprofit organizations for distribution to needy individuals by giving the Model Good Samaritan Food Donation Act the full force and effect of law.

  (A) in the section heading, by striking "model" and inserting "Bill Emerson"

  (B) in subsection (a), by striking "Good Samaritan" and inserting "Bill Emerson Good Samaritan:"

  (C) in subsection (b)(7), to read as follows:

Newt Gingrich

Founder & President Crystal Wolfe is the author of a comprehensive book on homelessness, Our Invisible Neighbors: Accounts, Causes, & Solutions to the Epidemic of Homelessness.

 

Synopsis: Homelessness is an issue that is as complex as the people involved. This comprehensive book on homelessness explores the causes that have resulted in this epidemic—the arms and legs, and the heart and soul of it. Our Invisible Neighbors includes 12 personal accounts of people who have been homeless throughout the United States, an account from a man who was homeless as a child in the Dominican Republic, and a chapter with the synopsis of 107 celebrities who were once homeless.

​

These stories of homelessness are from people of all ages, genders, races, and walks of life. These accounts include experiences of living on the subways, streets, in cars, parks, homeless shelters, and hotel shelters. Most importantly, several chapters explore the solutions of homelessness--how Finland, Canada, and certain cities and states in America have ended or greatly reduced the crisis of homelessness in their countries. This "cause of the heart" can be overcome through understanding, determination, and love for the people who have become Our Invisible Neighbors.
