In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are temporarily suspending lifTOvers pick-up and drop-off services until further notice. We hope you take care of yourselves, your loved ones, and those in your community.

Why lifTOvers?

Everyday, people in Toronto are struggling to come up with the food they require on a daily basis.

Everyday, event hosts throughout the city ask, “what do we do with the left over food?”

We @lifTOvers aim to redistribute consumable food and make it accessible to anyone who needs it.

$31 billion worth of food is wasted in Canada each year. Not only is this an economic cost, but it is also a major environmental cost – food that decays in landfills creates methane, a greenhouse gas that is 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide.

Request a lifTOver

Please note: a lifTOver is not guaranteed until you receive a confirmation by phone or email. We require a 24 hour notice before a lift. To ensure quality food delivery, we are only able to accept catered food or food that has been prepared in a Toronto Public Health certified environment (e.g. restaurants and catering companies).
