Our 2021 Recap

Why the Waste?

We work exclusively with verified 501(c)(3) Non Profits to make sure the food is utilized as a charitable contribution to maximize tax breaks, and FoodFull is also a verified 501(c)(3) organization verifying end to end donation protection for “wholesome” food. See our FoodFull Donee Protection page ( regarding the United States).

We send out reports of food contributions of your store highlighting the amount you were able to provide and the value of the food for your records.

Your deduction is the  lesser  of:  

a. your  tax  basis  for  the  donated food  (generally,  your cost)  plus  one‐half 
of the  profit margin (fair market value minus  the  tax  basis),  or 

b. twice your  tax basis.
Fair  market value  is your  normal  selling price—what you charge for  food of 
the  same type and quality. The food must be “apparently wholesome.

Donors are protected by numerous national and state legislative bills created solely to protects donors. This includes the Bill Emerson Good Samaritan Act, exempts donors from potential liability or damages related to the donation of perishable foods including food past its expiration date and instances where food packaging is messed up. 

Further legislation including The Food Donation Act of 2017 legislation protects donors. For more information, visit our page Food Donation Protection For Your Business.
