Waste Less.
Leftova is a community of food lovers who care about health, flavor, and the planet. Discover portion-smart recipes, share meals, and join the movement to reduce food waste together.
Leftova is built on a simple idea: good food should be shared, not wasted. We bring together community, sustainability, and creativity to tackle food waste.
Did you know that while millions of people around the world go to bed hungry every night, a lot of food is still thrown away every day? It's true! About one-third of all food grown ends up wasted — that’s like tossing out one slice for every three slices of pizza.
The United Nations created a goal called Zero Hunger (SDG 2), which means making sure everyone gets enough to eat, no matter where they live. When we cook the right amount, share our extra food, and avoid waste, we’re helping people and the planet at the same time.
Leftova is all about making that happen — one meal at a time!
What’s Going On in the World?
Even though there’s enough food to feed everyone, over 735 million people around the world still go to bed hungry. That’s nearly 1 in 10 people.
At the same time, we waste about 1/3 of all food produced globally — that’s around 1.3 billion tons every year. Most of it ends up in landfills, causing pollution and missing the chance to help someone in need.
Key Facts:
1 in 3 people globally don’t have access to enough nutritious food
30% of all food gets wasted — often in homes, restaurants, and stores
Food waste is one of the top contributors to climate change
Kids and teens are especially affected in areas with food insecurity
Why It Matters
Hunger isn’t just about being hungry. It affects school, health, energy, and the future of communities. When we waste less and share more, we become part of a global solution.
