-Mayor of Newark, NJ-Corey Booker
“As a major healthcare organization that produces large amounts of food waste, it is important for us to explore alternatives to traditional disposal. By using the Food Waste Liquefier we are extending our commitment beyond our current green environmental investments – making Newark Beth Israel Medical Center and Children’s Hospital of New Jersey a greener place to work and serve our (patient) community.”
President and Chief Executive Officer of NBIMC and Children’s Hospital of NJ – John A. Brennan, MD, MPH
“This project demonstrates that we can create savings and economic activity in Newark by taking care of the urban environment. The Newark Sustainability Office is proud to support this project as an example of strategies that move us closer to our Zero Waste goal. Beth Israel’s success in launching this pilot project with the help of Clean Water Fund is a challenge to all major Newark institutions to find creative ways to reduce and re-use their waste.”
Deputy Mayor and Director of Economic and Housing Development – Adam Zipkin
“I applaud Beth Israel Hospital for partnering with Clean Water Fund (CWF). We are excited about establishing an economical and sustainable model for food waste handling that can be replicated at other institutions and business districts in the city. This project will reduce garbage hauling costs, truck traffic, air pollution, source of rodent and other pest problems in the immediate South Ward neighborhood, as well as the amount of waste going to the local incinerator.”
Clean Water Fund Project Coordinator – Kim Gaddy
“We are not only delighted to be involved with this technologically advanced project, but absolutely astounded by its effectiveness. Our community is doing all that it can to find innovative strategies to meet the urgent problem of pollution, energy consumption and waste. Partnering with professionals such as Food2Water is a way to collectively make a difference where two organizations are coming together to seek approaches to conserve and protect the environment.”
Cedar Crest Executive Director – Cathy Guttman
“We have had the unit over 2 years and it is very proficient and practically runs by itself. We haven’t had any problems with the unit since its inception at our hospital. I also like the preventive maintenance Food2Water has because the service technician will inform us of any changes or new microorganisms that would be beneficial to our needs. It has saved us money on our hauling costs and cut down on our F.T.E.’s. I would recommend Food2Water’s Food Waste Liquefier to any food service department or hospitality company, large or small that is looking for ways to save money, man power, and go GREEN for the sake of the future.”
Manager of Dining Services at Valley Hospital – Nelson Sangurima
“Newark Beth Israel Hospital is excited about significantly reducing our food waste originally sent to the local landfill by utilizing The Food Waste Liquefier from Food2Water. The nutrient rich water is
discharged right down the drain thus reducing our hauling costs significantly. Food2Water’s professionalism and service is second to none. Even though we are only in the early stages of our relationship, we strongly believe our partnership with Food2Water will support future generations and will be the foundation for enduring success.”
Director of Dining Services for Newark Beth Israel Hospital – Allen Reigert
