Now they use their industry skills to fight food insecurity. The flipside of food scarcity is also food waste, which is also a huge problem, said Freeman. Mt. Airy Groceries is based around volunteers. Freeman and Rights get food donated from wholsalers like Philly Food Works. Food is then delivered to charities like Germantown Face to Face and Philadelphia Interfaith Hospitality Network. Those organizations distribute the food or volunteers drop it off directly.
