The CareIt app is a collaboration between Salinas Valley Recycles, ReGen Monterey, all the Cities, and the County to expand the edible food recovery network throughout the County.
It’s free to use for any business in Monterey County that generates edible food and for those food recovery organizations accepting the food.
Food donation technology that makes it easy for businesses and institutions to donate surplus food directly to local nonprofits
.How Careit Works
- Post a Donation: Businesses, nonprofits, and institutions can post surplus edible food and essential goods for pick up or drop off.
- Match to a Nonprofit: Local hunger-relief agencies browse and reserve posted donations. Donors can also directly assign a post to their preferred charity.
- Arrange Transportation: Nonprofits assign their own trained staff or volunteers to schedule a pick up or drop off with the donor.
- Manage Data: The great thing about Careit is that it provides businesses, nonprofits, and governments a robust platform for data tracking – required for SB 1383 reporting, or tax purposes, fundraising, and quality control.
