Return Reference Explanation
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1: ACROSS THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, ONE IN FIVE HOUSEHOLDS IS FOOD INSECURE. AT THE SAME TIME, LOS ANGELES IS HOME TO ONE OF NORTH AMERICA'S LARGEST WHOLESALE PRODUCE MARKETS, ONE OF THE NATION'S BUSIEST INTERNATIONAL PORTS, AND MORE THAN 150 WEEKLY FARMERS MARKETS. BUT THE REALITY IS THAT MUCH OF THIS PERFECTLY GOOD PRODUCE IS LEFT TO BECOME WASTE IN LANDFILLS. AN ASTOUNDING 38% OF THE FOOD PRODUCED IN THE U.S. IS UNSOLD OR UNEATEN, EMPHASIZING THE NEED FOR FOOD FORWARD'S LARGE-SCALE RECOVERY AND DISTRIBUTION OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES ACROSS THE REGION. IN 2023, FOOD FORWARD RECOVERED AND DISTRIBUTED MORE THAN 87 MILLION POUNDS OF PRODUCE FOR PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS TO DISTRIBUTE TO PEOPLE EXPERIENCING FOOD INSECURITY, RETURNING AN ESTIMATED SOCIAL IMPACT VALUE OF $168 MILLION FOR THE VALUE OF PRODUCE DISTRIBUTED, WHICH IS 26 TIMES GREATER THAN FOOD FORWARD'S 2023 EXPENSES OF $6.4 MILLION. HAVING RAPIDLY EXPANDED ITS PROGRAMMING IN RESPONSE TO THE PANDEMIC, FOOD FORWARD CURRENTLY DISTRIBUTES ENOUGH SURPLUS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES EACH DAY TO MEET THE DAILY RECOMMENDED SERVINGS FOR MORE THAN 270,000 PEOPLE ACROSS 13 CALIFORNIA COUNTIES AND SEVEN ADDITIONAL STATES AND TRIBAL LANDS.
