b.good Customers Can Donate to Food Rescue US Through App

(Contributed press release): As part of b.good restaurant’s unique drive to give back to communities, the company has an innovative function through its mobile app which enables guests to donate healthy food to local organizations. Over the last four years, b.good has collaborated with customers to give back the value of nearly 19,000 servings of the restaurant’s healthy food to local people who need it.

The Fairfield b.good restaurant visited Food Rescue US this week and presented them with a check for nearly $300, which will fund enough food rescues to get almost 6,000 meals to people who need it. Here is a short video created for the Fairfield b.good customers from Food Rescue US, thanking them for their donations. Since its grand opening September of 2015, b.good Fairfield has donated equivalent of over 39,000 rescued meals through $1,975 cash donations given to the organization, and plans to continue making an impact together with its customers in the future.

All guests who are part of b.good’s free loyalty program receive free food gifts (such as salads, smoothies or burgers) on the mobile app from the company or from friends – the recipient has the option to share it with another friend, redeem the item OR donate it to a local Community Partner.

This donation is part of the company’s first-ever national program to distribute the meals from all of the 50+ b.good locations throughout the country to the Community Partners at once. Paid forward by actual b.good customers, b.good is able to provide the value of more than 4,300 healthy meals this month to continue its commitment to inspiring goodness.Please let me know if you are interested in speaking with Jon Olinto, b.good’s co-founder, who can talk about how b.good leverages its technology to give back to the Fairfield community and other ways the company supports local organizations.
