Hi [NAME],

I read your [RECENT ARTICLE/PODCAST/NEWSLETTER] on [FOOD WASTE / SUSTAINABILITY / LOCAL CLIMATE] and thought Food Finder might fit your beat.

Food Finder is a subscription-based platform that enables individuals to connect and share food. It’s a subscription-based platform where neighbors list unopened, not-expired packaged food they won’t use, and nearby members claim it for free. No money, tips, or payments ever change hands between members.

The angle: most people know the 30–40% food waste statistic, but they don’t have a practical Tuesday-night action. Food Finder is that action — list what you won’t eat, a neighbor picks it up, and it stays out of the trash.

Happy to share:
• Member stories from [CITY/NEIGHBORHOOD]
• The press release: https://foodfinder.org/press/launch-2026

Would a 15-minute call or a few emailed answers work?

Hi [NAME],

I’m reaching out because [CITY/NEIGHBORHOOD] members are starting to use Food Finder to share unopened packaged food with neighbors — and I thought it might make a good local-interest piece.

Food Finder is a subscription-based platform that enables individuals to connect and share food. It works like a neighborhood swap board for groceries: members list what they won’t use, nearby members claim it, and they arrange a quick handoff. No money changes hands. The platform is funded by a small subscription fee so the food itself stays free.

I can connect you with a local member in [CITY] who has shared or found food through the platform, or send a short demo video.

Hi [NAME],

Food Finder just launched a subscription-based platform for peer-to-peer food sharing. It’s built around a structural rule: no payments, tips, or gratuities of any kind between members. Food is always free.

Food Finder is a subscription-based platform that enables individuals to connect and share food.

The model: neighbors list unopened, not-expired packaged items they won’t use. Nearby members claim them. A small platform subscription keeps the infrastructure running; the food itself is never monetized.

Hi [NAME],

I’ve been listening to [SHOW NAME] and think a Food Finder story could resonate with your audience.

Food Finder is a subscription-based platform that enables individuals to connect and share food. We’re a subscription-based platform where neighbors share unopened, not-expired packaged food for free. The same person who shares a box of cereal one week might claim a bag of coffee the next. No money changes hands.

I’d love to talk about:
• Why household food waste is a design problem, not just a behavior problem
• How a “no money” rule changes the dynamics of sharing
• What we’re learning from early members in [CITY/NEIGHBORHOOD]
