About Second Helping NWA
Second Helping NWA is a local nonprofit organization dedicated to reducing food waste and fighting food insecurity across Northwest Arkansas. The organization works by rescuing surplus, high‑quality food from restaurants, grocery stores, caterers, and food suppliers and redistributing it to partner agencies that serve families and individuals in need.
By connecting excess food with community organizations, Second Helping NWA helps prevent thousands of pounds of perfectly good food from going to waste each year while supporting local hunger‑relief efforts. Their work helps strengthen the community by ensuring food resources are used efficiently and reach those who need them most.
Proceeds from the Second Helping 5K directly support this mission, helping expand food rescue efforts and improve access to nutritious food throughout Northwest Arkansas.
