The world faces a food shortage crisis whose magnitude is rivaled only by the ecological catastrophe it portends. Everybody eats food, and with consumption comes waste. It is estimated that 1/3 of global food production or 1.3 billion tons are sent to landfills yearly. And according to the World Health Organization, approximately 2 billion people are moderately or severely food insecure. If you assume that an average meal is 3.5 pounds, food waste could feed 2 billion hungry people nearly 400 times. Food often gets wasted for several reasons: What if your refrigerator breaks and you can't get to the grocery store? What if you discover that you bought too much fresh produce and don't have room to store it? Some people have refrigerators but can't keep their food cold. Other people live in a rural community where transportation is limited, and shorter trips into town are necessary. From its inception, WasHungry's mission has been to reduce food waste and hunger by allowing users to make better decisions regarding where their food ends up - to those who need it the most. WasHungry is a smartphone App that connects food donors with those in need of food (food donees). Donors post a picture and description of their excess food while specifying what they can provide; then, they either accept a pending request or publicly post it for recipients to select from. Donees/Recipients can either request a specific food item from donors or choose from food already listed.
