The Bill Emerson Good Samaritan Food Donation Act signed by President Bill
Clinton in 1996 makes food salvaging easier. It protects donaors from
liability when donating to a non-profit. This has become a standard,
national law, whereas different states had different laws prior to this.
For more information about the law, please see:

However, keep in mind that there are still local laws on food handling by
volunteers. Please read the how-to manual thoroughly and get in touch with
your local government when you are trying to set up a food salvaging program.
