With millions of people going hungry every day, and tons of food being wasted, a

Leftover food management and Contribution web application has the potential to
make a significant impact. Such an application would allow donors to connect with
charities and other organizations that can distribute leftover food to those in need. The
web application would work by allowing donors to enter information about the food
they have available, including location and contact details, which would then be
shared with charities and NGOs that are able to pick up and distribute the food to
those in need. By doing so, the application would help to reduce food waste and
address the issue of hunger simultaneously. In addition, this web application could
also incorporate features such as expiration date management, food sharing between
neighbours, and discounted pricing for unsold products from grocery stores and
restaurants. Overall, a Leftover food management and Contribution web application
has huge potential to make a positive impact on both the environment and society.
As per the knowledge the technology is going advanced and growing day by day.
Over main motto is to help needy people. The idea behind over project can be use by
many people who wish to donate things to needy organizations Also, many
organizations like to ask for various things required by them such as clothes, food
grains, books utensils. In this mobile Application, we have tried to reduce food
wastage by giving Leftover food to people or organization who need it. The needy
will add to a request, in case of any leftover food donor have. This request is sent to
the list of donors. The Available Donor then accept the request. We are going to
manage the delivery system by appointing delivery person who will collect the food
from the donor and distribute among the needy people. Second option for delivery
system is that volunteers who wish to help to donate food can join us for distribution
in near by areas. For e.g.: they can distribute food in government school, government
hospital, orphanage, old age homes. And the third option is the Food Bank if we
receive food in odd times we can give it to food bank where the care of food is taken.
Safety and Hygiene are maintained in food banks. So food wastage or food spoilage
cannot occur.
A drastic increase can be seen in food waste. As per data given by Food and
Agriculture Organization, 1/3rd of food produced for human consumption is wasted
globally, which accounts for almost 1.3 billion tons per year. On the other hand, also
as per WHO 20% of the population face extreme food shortages. Hence there is a
need to come up with a solution that can avoid food waste & can help feed the needy.
This web-based Leftover Food Management system can assist in collecting the
leftover food from hotels & restaurants to distribute among those in need. NGOs that
are helping poor communities to battle against starvation & malnutrition can raise a
request for food supply from restaurants through this application. Once the request is
accepted, the NGOs can collect the food from the restaurants for its distribution. In
this way this android-based food waste management system will help restaurants to
reduce food waste and will help in feeding the poor and needy people.
In this system, we have tried to reduce restaurant food wastage by giving leftover
food to NGOs. NGOs will raise a request, in case of any leftover food restaurants
have. This request is sent to the restaurant manager of that particular restaurant. The
NGO Manager then approves the request and assigns it to one of the NGO employees
for takeaway and forwards the request to the restaurant. The leftover food at the
restaurant can be given to NGOs at the end of the day. The admin can track the
history of restaurants and NGOs for the leftover foods.
Many restaurants and people tend throw the leftover food at the end of the day even
though the food is perfectly fine to be eaten, which means that huge amounts of food
is wasted. While all that food is being wasted, some families can barely afford proper
meals with their limited money. They don’t get enough nutrition due to lack of having
three meals in a day. Therefore, we decided to create our application to link the
restaurant and people with the unfortunate people, so instead of throwing the food, the
unfortunate will be able to pick it up from the restaurant and the people at the end of
the day. The application allows the restaurants and people to log in, and upload an
image of the meals they have as leftovers along with a description of that meal, and
the location where to pick it up.
