Scott Couper from Street Level Advocacy says Kevin the manager at Starbucks on Chemong reached out to him inquiring about the food the coffee shop has to throw out at the end of the day.
Before he could take the food Couper had to register with Second Harvest, a food rescue organization that aims to connect restaurants and organizations to reduce food waste.
Second Harvest ensured Couper had proper food handling training, and provides an app that notifies him when there is food to pick up.
