My Capstone Project: Clean Plate Donations
1 in 8 Americans experience food insecurity while $200 billion is being spent on food that will never be eaten. That’s billions of pounds of food wasted, instead of going to those who need it. According to a recent report, roughly a half a pound of food is wasted per meal in restaurants. Approximately 85% of the food that isn’t used in a typical American restaurant is thrown out while only a small percentage is recycled or donated. Clean Plate Donations was created by four web developers seeking to find a solution to the increasing levels of food insecurity in America. Clean Plate Donations is a web application that bridges the gap between the restaurant with excess food and non-profit organizations in need– allowing restaurants to list food as donations and non-profit organizations to receive food donations. CleanPlateDonation was created by utilizing HTML, CSS, Thymeleaf, Java, JavaScript, Mapbox API, Filestack API, jQuery, Bootstrap 4, MySQL, and Spring Boot.
