Rethink Certified

Through Rethink Certified, we partner with restaurants and food establishments to utilize their excess food to prepare meals for communities facing food insecurity. In exchange, partners receive resources from Rethink to integrate community support into their daily operations.

Since its launch in April 2020, Rethink has partnered with over 100 food establishments in New York City, Chicago, San Francisco, Nashville, Washington D.C. and Miami. 

To scale the distribution of meals, Rethink Food has developed Xylem: a web-based technology platform that enables both the Rethink Certified restaurant partners, and the CBOs for whom they provide meals, to communicate their needs directly with one another in real-time, streamlining operations to better serve and nourish their local communities.
