Two well-established, local non-profits with a shared mission to reduce hunger and food waste by connecting surplus food with neighbors in need have decided to merge.

September is Recovery Month, a month that celebrates advancements made by those in substance use recovery. Several Austin community resources help make that recovery, in all its forms, possible.
With there being a significant correlation between food insecurity and substance use disorder, Keep Austin Fed (KAF) works with a number of nonprofit organizations actively supporting individuals who have experienced substance dependency.

Keep Austin Fed is an “ambulance at the bottom of the cliff.” We cannot eliminate the perils at the top, but we strive to provide sufficient aid at the bottom. Our mission - to reduce hunger and help the environment by connecting surplus food with our neighbors in need - is a triage. We believe that food insecurity in developed nations, where food is abundant, is a solvable problem – one that will take a collective effort to fix.
