Over its 12-year existence, White Pony Express has emerged as a pivotal organization in the Bay Area, addressing food waste and hunger by rescuing over 4 million pounds of food. Despite its success—supporting 130,000 individuals and delivering essential items like clothing—funding cuts threaten its operations. Founded by Dr. Carol Weyland Conner in 2013, WPE operates on a model that focuses on distributing fresh food swiftly, supporting vulnerable communities and allowing local nonprofits to pursue their core missions amidst rising meal costs and food scarcity issues.
"During its 12-year history, White Pony Express has become a powerful, unifying community-building force in the Bay Area, rescuing over 4 million pounds of food."
"Built on a unique model created in 2013, WPE prioritizes providing fresh, healthy, high-quality perishable food to those in need, opposing hunger in the community."
