Young Entrepreneurs - Foodbank Local
The world has more than enough food to end
hunger - the problem is getting the surplus from those who have it to those who
need it. Foodbank Local is a
smartphone/tablet app that’s like online shopping for food donations, helping
supermarkets, bakeries and other food donors to connect with local charities
fast.
The Foodbank Local team were one of three
finalists at the 2013 Microsoft Imagine World Cup, winning a grant of $50,000 to
develop the project.
UNSW's Brad Lorge takes us into "the wide-area pantry".
