-*ABOUT*-
PassThePlate is an original Hackathon project @HackPrinceton25 by a solo developer. It was built over a grueling 36 hours of coding, design, and development, but the outcome was well worth it.
The idea was founded by a previous endeavour to bring awareness to food insecurity and food waste. Previously I started a local non profit organization to help raise food donations for those in need in the community, and this project is an extension of that endeavour. It aims to help reduce food waste and increase access to food for those in need. Saving lives and reducing food waste.
