DoorDash directs its social impact resources toward reducing hunger and expanding equitable food access by leveraging its delivery network, in-kind logistics, and gift-card donations. It also supports small, independent restaurants and local brick-and-mortar businesses facing disasters or recovery needs, and runs capacity-building programs (e.g., local business accelerator) that combine grants with training and platform credits. Grants and support are targeted primarily within the United States and often prioritize organizations that deliver meals or services to underserved communities or businesses affected by crises.

Mix of in-kind support (free/subsidized delivery, platform credits, gift cards) and small monetary grants typically ranging from ~ $2,000 up to $50,000, with many program awards clustered at $1,000–$10,000. Funding is delivered via rolling requests for in-kind/gift-card programs, periodic cohort or round-based application windows for disaster funds and accelerators, and invite-only impact grants for select Project DASH partners.
For food-access organizations, request Project DASH or Community Credits via the rolling online forms; expect in-kind delivery or gift-card awards. Monitor DoorDash’s site and program announcements for open disaster-relief and accelerator application windows (these run in rounds or cohorts). Project DASH Impact Grants are typically invite-only, so build a delivery partnership with DoorDash or partner food banks to be considered.
