Dear Business Owner,
We would like to inform you that the City of Diamond Bar has contracted with Abound Food
Care a non-profit organization to assist in the implementation of the requirements of new state

The new law SB1383 requires businesses, as well as food recovery organizations, to participate in
an edible food donation program. On behalf of the City of Diamond Bar, Abound Food Care will
educate, outreach, support and guide food generators to comply with elements of SB1383.
