Since 2010, INDY VIA's have raised over $54,245 with 55 telethons in support of the Food Rescue mission to empower students to lead the #FoodIsNotTrash movement in schools. These telethons represent 10% of Food Rescue's annual budget, and now over 43 million food items have been logged onto our K-12 Food Rescue Log Tool as "rescued" from our school and food pantry partners.
