food rescue

While I was waiting for the bus a couple of days ago I was reminded of OzHarvest when I saw one of their zippy vans scooting down North Terrace, Adelaide.  I'm thrilled they're in Adelaide now, and think OzHarvest food rescue an inspired initiative by Ronni Kahn.  OzHarvest collects excess food that would be discarded, but is still ok, and distributes it to those who need it.  It's worth reading some of the Food Waste Statistics here.
There are many ways of helping OzHarvest: volunteering, donating food if you have a business with excess, or donating money to assist with the running of the organisation.
