Goodr was founded on the simple yet powerful idea that we need to feed more and waste less. Founder Jasmine Crowe-Houston was determined to connect the 88 million tons of food that’s wasted in the United States each year with the 44 million people across the country who don’t have enough to eat. So she created a tech solution that reroutes surplus food from food service provides, corporate cafeterias, and restaurants to nonprofits that feed the hungry – addressing two major food issues at once.
This win-win solution is scaling rapidly across the country. RSF’s $500,000 loan is providing the Goodr team with working capital that can support their expansion.
“It is always an honor when a partner is aligned with our company mission and is willing to invest in us as we work towards it,” Founder and CEO Jasmine Crowe-Houston shared. “RSF’s investment will help us scale our operations, acquire a new fulfillment center, and continue to expand our work. The challenges of food waste and food insecurity continue to be urgent, and RSF’s support means we will remain equipped to respond.”
