Based in Piermont, NY we are working with Food Recovery organizations, throughout the County, to accomplish our goal. Project Hungry is a rare but sensational project that helps give aid to local food pantries and feeding programs that have too little. Project Hungry has a goal to help increase the amount of food available to these agencies while lowering food waste in our community. We accomplish
this by using technology to help food pantries and feeding programs get food delivered to them. In collaboration with students and business partners, this issue can be addressed by creating a website to connect our food recovery programs to food pantries. Thus, allowing food pantries to view what food is readily available. Therefore, enabling food pantries and feeding programs to select food to be distributed to them. Simultaneously, younger generations will be educated about the issue of hunger. Project Hungry is aware that the problems of food insecurity and food waste are issues that won’t be abolished entirely in Rockland County. However, additional food can be allocated to more people in need while lowering food waste one step at a time.
