Meet James Kanoff, Ben Collier, Will Collier and Aidan Reilly. Learn how they created The Farmlink Project to combat hunger and heal the planet by linking farmers to food banks. The nonprofit, grassroots organization run by 250 volunteers, was just awarded the 2021 Congressional Medal of Honor Service Award. Due to the effects of COVID-19, over 54 million people were experiencing food insecurity. At the same time, the four founders read an article in the New York Times and learned that fresh food was going to waste on farms and food banks were running on empty, so they decided to do something about it. The Farmlink Project connects farms that have a surplus of fresh, nutritious produce to communities in need with the added bonus of decreasing greenhouse gas emissions! Hear how they are addressing challenges of food waste, food insecurity and the environment--incredibly inspiring. As seen on Today Show, CNBC, Washington Post and more.
