About
For this group project, we were asked to look at local communities and the problems they face. After conducting research, we were to combat those problems with a website or app. My group chose to focus on a combination of the homeless community as well as those who suffer from food insecurity. We designed 4 screens of an app called FoodFlow.
The Problem:
Target Audience:
We were aware that not all people experiencing homelessness or food insecurity have smartphones, but multiple sources and studies have shown that a lot of them do. FoodFlow is not a perfect fix, but simply a way to mitigate hunger in a local community.
We wanted to target families and individuals struggling to put food on the table, as well as restaurant businesses with constant leftover food.
Target Partners:
Small food businesses
Restaurants
