Robert Egger on Transforming Nonprofits and Tackling Hunger

Because pounds moved, I believe, has been one of the most disastrous, flawed metrics in the history of the nonprofit sector, because there's no impact connected to that.
Why is hunger still a persistent issue in America despite the tireless efforts of countless nonprofits? In this thought-provoking episode of Unwasted: The Podcast, host Riley sits down with Robert Egger, a trailblazer in the nonprofit sector and the founder of DC Central Kitchen and LA Kitchen. Known for his candid and passionate approach, Egger delves into the systemic flaws that hinder lasting change in the fight against hunger.
He doesn't just highlight problems; he offers innovative solutions and emphasizes the importance of intergenerational political alliances to drive real impact. With accolades like the Humanitarian Award from the James Beard Foundation and being named one of LA Weekly's People of the Year, Egger's insights are both profound and actionable. He also sheds light on the often-overlooked connection between food waste and hunger, urging a reevaluation of how success is measured in the nonprofit world.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in making a meaningful difference in the fight against hunger and understanding the future landscape of nonprofits.
