Waste Not Want Not (WNWN) is a community based program whose purpose is to source surplus or non-commercial produce for distribution to the needy in NSW and the ACT through Foodbank NSW. It was first established in the Carrathool Shire of NSW in 2011 by the Carrathool community and Foodbank NSW. In its first year of operating WNWN collected over 500 tonnes of food which was delivered to families that need a helping hand. Read more about the WNWN program...
