About Us
RFYCO - Recycle Feed Your Community Organization is a nonprofit serving neighbors in St. Louis, Missouri since 2012.
Our Mission
Turn everyday bottles and cans into meals, hygiene and a path to housing for our neighbors.
Our Vision
A clean St. Louis where no neighbor goes hungry and everyone has a path home.
Our Housing Model: Partner, Not Provider
We team up with the St. Louis Housing Hub. We prepare our neighbors with IDs, points from recycling, and case notes, then we hand them to our housing partners who have the beds and vouchers. This keeps us lean and effective.
