From Surplus to Service
We work with businesses to recover usable surplus food and merchandise and connect those resources with individuals and families experiencing economic hardship through charitable distribution or affordable community access, subject to applicable requirements.

Future imagery will highlight surplus recovery, warehouse logistics, volunteers, and community distribution — never exploitative portrayals of hardship.
Businesses often have usable food, merchandise, or inventory that they can no longer efficiently sell, return, or distribute through normal channels. Sunshine works with businesses to explore charitable recovery opportunities and connect appropriate resources with people and communities who can use them.
