How It Works.

Donating leftover food

from sets has never been easier. 


You give us the call sheet; we'll do the rest!

We work seamlessly with each production to arrange a stealthy, no-fuss pickup of your excess meals - around the clock, 24/7. We work all shifts: breakfast, lunch, even 3rd meal.

WHY US?

  1. We speak your language. Every Day Action (EDA) is founded and run by career ADs, UPMs, and Producers fluent in "Production." We understand callsheets, one-liners, shooting schedules, mapthisout.com, movie magic, and production reports - making the process of coordinating food collection swift, safe, and seamless.

  2. We protect you. Our liability waiver ensures that EDA assumes 100% liability for all food collections and drops.

  3. We keep you safe. Our drivers follow the most up-to-date PPE in accordance with the CDC's current recommendations. The safety of your cast and crew is our top priority. Contactless pick-ups are available.

  4. We got you covered. EDA collects food around the clock 24/7. Our insulated thermal bags keep food fresh as we deliver to encampments, community fridges, shelters, missions, orphanages, and food pantries as close to your production as possible. This way, we all give back to the communities affected during filming.

  5. We help you go green. Not only are you helping to feed people with food otherwise destined for the dumpster, you’re reducing landfills and minimizing your production’s carbon footprint.

  6. We help each other. We are a donation-based service that operates as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit; the bulk of your generous tax-deductible contribution goes to fund our Film Industry Driver Program, providing income opportunities to perhaps the most underpaid, hard working, employees of the film industry - our local Production Assistants and Background Actors - when they’re between gigs.

Together can make a huge difference in the lives of LA's most vulnerable.
