Hi I'm Virginie Forget, the Food Rescue US - Boston Site Director. Originally from Paris, France, I came to Boston in 1996 for an MBA. While most of my career was spent in customer support, sales and business process improvements, I followed my true passion, cooking, and spent the last decade in the food industry in sunny California.  After moving back to Boston in 2021, I wanted to get involved with a nonprofit organization focused on food waste. I was lucky to stumble upon Charlie, our site director, at a volunteer fair. 

In my current role, I am in charge of maximizing the impact of our donors' contributions by allocating them to receiving agencies that can utilize these donations most effectively, ensuring the greatest benefit to those in need. I love managing these day to day operations in the city and am also a Rescuer myself.
