Every dollar connects a family to free food.
Your donation powers Lemontree's mission to end hunger in America.
As Seen In
The majority of people facing hunger don’t access food pantries.
There are thousands of food pantries, soup kitchens, and other free food programs across the country, but most people who need help don’t know about them.
At Lemontree, we use technology to strengthen existing food assistance networks and improve accessibility for the user, while putting empathy at the center of the experience.
Our family of donors unlock dinner for families who need it most.
As hunger worsens, Lemontree is growing to meet the need.
Last year, 44 million of our neighbors went to bed hungry–a 31% jump from the previous year, and the biggest increase since 2008.
Through our tech-enabled food helpline, personalized food access dashboards, and an online resource directory, we’ve grown to serve thousands of households every day across eleven regions since 2021.
Our impact goes beyond a single meal, translating into substantial, lasting support that prioritizes the humanity of our neighbors in need.
Lemontree serves many cities, with more launches planned in 2026.
Data + Hospitality = Full Plates
We meet people where they are and treat them with dignity and respect. Every user speaks to a hospitality specialist (a real human!) who can provide personalized recommendations about the best food resources nearby.
Help is out there. It shouldn’t be this hard to take it.
There are more food pantries in the US than McDonalds. Yet, no one has accurate information on their location and hours.
We’re building the most comprehensive dataset on food resources, backed by up-to-the-minute data & real user feedback.

The food is already out there–we just need to help our neighbors find it. It costs us just $1 to help a user unlock up to $9 of free food.
