Story
NOURISHED FOR NIL
 
We are a non-profit FOOD RESCUE project located in Hastings, who rescue surplus food and redistribute it to the people within the Hawke’s Bay community, on the same day.
Our team is comprised of committed volunteers whose shared passion is reducing waste and helping others
Nourished for Nil will not discriminate, judge or label any community members who find themselves needing our service 
The Nourished for Nil project aims to provide food to all people and families including those who do not qualify for assistance from other organisations

MISSION STATEMENT
To rescue surplus food that is good enough to eat but no longer good enough to sell and redistribute it within our communities 
 
VALUES
No judgement or conditions
Kindness & gratitude
 
VISION
To redistribute food that otherwise would go to waste ZERO FOOD WASTE
 
GOALS
 To operate an effective and relevant social service that serves those in need
To sustainably and consistently redistribute surplus foods 
To establish a place where volunteers can participate in giving back to the community & build relationships
To create an environment that promotes inclusion and sharing where everyone is welcome
To develop an organisation that fosters advocacy and equality
 
The idea of a Nourished for Nil was born after hearing of similar successful initiatives in Wellington and Palmerston North.  Our team is committed to make this project just as successful in Hawke’s Bay according to our Mission Statement, Vision, Values & Goals.
 
 
"We are a food rescue organsition, which means food that was destined to be thrown out for a variety of reasons, gets a second chance! Did you know that 1 in 5 bags of food you purchase gets thrown out as food waste? Food rescue has positive social and environmental impacts because it contributes to social good by nourishing people, including those experiencing food insecurity, and provides broader social benefits including contributing to community building by linking food insecure people to wrap around services.In 2022 we merged with the local food banks in Hastings and Napier and now we make food parcels on order from social service agencies. This service can be accessed on referral through a recognised agency."
