Q - What type of leftover food can we deliver to people in need?
A - Certain food can be delivered as long as it has not been partially eaten or served to your guests. It also must be kept refrigerated or frozen and delivered in a timely fashion. If you have any packaged goods that might have been given out at your event (i.e. as part of a gift basket), these can also be delivered to people in need.

Q - Isn't there a liability issue with regard to donating leftover food?
A - No. A law was enacted by Congress called the "Bill Emerson Good Samaritan Act". This bill was put in place to encourage businesses and organizations to donate leftover food from events they plan. In doing so, they cannot be held liable should someone become ill from food that was donated in good faith. To learn more and view a copy of this important legislation,
