To do our bit in helping to redistribute surplus supermarket food that would otherwise go to waste. Our main aim is to support ethnic minorities especially students who are here to study. From observation and personal experience most international students have sold most if not all they have to fund their education here. Some of them still send support to their families back home and with the state of the economy, its taking its toll. Setting up this will at least reduce the burden of spending too much money on food thereby channelling that to other aspects where its needed. There are organisations who already do this, however I've observed that there is still a lot that goes to waste everyday and the bureaucratic system the supermarket have doesn't do anything to reduce this waste
