In this episode of the She Supply Chains Podcast, Kristy Ryan, Chief Operating Officer at Move for Hunger, breaks down how she transitioned from a diverse background in insurance into the world of logistics. She describes Move for Hunger as a logistics nonprofit that views waste and inefficiencies as underutilized capacity rather than failures.

A major focus of the conversation is the "Charity Freight" model, which Kristy helped launch to address the fact that 55 truckloads of food and beverage items are lost per shipper annually. This reverse logistics model captures value by redirecting surplus food through existing lanes without adding new trucks or emissions. Kristy also challenges the misconception that nonprofits are less efficient than the private sector, arguing that missions deserve discipline and that efficiency is the most compassionate option because it ensures resources reach those in need faster.
