Mission
We increase food access and protect the planet by rescuing and repurposing food, while educating and advocating to increase food security and decrease food waste.
About
We envision a future where good food will not be wasted and negatively impact the environment. Where food-insecure families and individuals can thrive without worrying about where their next meal will come from. And where excess food has an easy and direct line to communities in need.
We Don’t Waste began in 2009 with one man, a vision, and a Volvo. Noticing how much good food was going to waste, founder Arlan Preblud decided to take it upon himself to deliver the excess to local food banks.
In just over ten years, We Don’t Waste has grown into a full operation led by Arlan’s passion and vision. In 2017, we moved into an 11,750-square-foot Food Recovery and Distribution Center. With four refrigerated trucks (a special place for Volvo’s still in our heart) and a growing staff — our impact continues to grow across the Denver metro region.
We’re proud to lead initiatives where we can connect with our community personally and help food go further.
