Goals
Problem statement:
There are people in Gori who are homeless or are struggling to buy a food. They collect food from the trash bins in the streets. Some of them are asking for money in the streets.
On the other hand, at least 15% of food is thrown away from other homes. Worldwide, about a third of all food produced, worth around $1 trillion, is lost or wasted, according to a recent report by UNEP and the World Resources Institute.
We want to connect the supply and demand of food in Gori.
Proposed Solution:
We want to place a big fridge in the center of Gori. Anyone can leave leftover food or take it home to eat.
The idea is to leave food for the homeless and those just needing a little helping hand, especially during the freezing winter months. People will donate food that they would want to eat themselves. People will take what they need and leave what they don’t. This will save people from hunger and reduce food waste in Gori.
Sustainability:
Volunteers will check the fridge daily to make sure the contents are appropriate.
Individuals and local restaurants will contribute foods.
Before the fridge will become popular, volunteers will collect foods from restaurants and homes. They will get phone calls and Facebook messages about the possibility of taking free food.
There will be few rules about what cannot be donated – no raw meat, seafood, or eggs, or anything past its expiry date. Homemade food is fine, as long as it has a label stating when it was made.
Equal gender opportunity:
Our volunteers are men and women in Gori, and anyone who needs it can use the fridge.
