Feed More. Waste Less.

Last year, over 34 million Americans, including 9 million children, faced food insecurity. At the same time, nearly one-third of all food produced in the U.S. went to waste.

 

We have to resources to feed more, but to feed more we have to waste less. 

 

According to Project Drawdown, reducing food waste could close 60% of the gap between the food available today and the amount needed to eliminate hunger by 2050.

 

At Act Bar, we’re committed to being part of the solution. By replacing virgin grains with upcycled grains, we prevent 3 gallons of water from being wasted for every bar we produce. Through our partnership with Brighter Bites, we donate 10 cents from every bar sold, the equivalent of providing 1/2 pound of produce to communities in need.

 

These small actions add up to meaningful change. Solving the U.S. hunger crisis won’t happen in a single, sweeping moment—it will require small collective actions. 

 

We hope Act Bar inspires our generation to recognize the power of small actions. Whether it’s buying imperfect produce, donating surplus food from your pantry, or choosing an upcycled protein bar, together, we can waste less and feed more.
