The app facilitates the ongoing work of an eponymous India-based nonprofit that collects donated goods from the food service industry, farms, and local grocery stores to give to charities, homeless shelters, and food pantries that serve the needy.
Those with food available for donation simply post a notice about their surplus, which can be seen by qualified charities in the vicinity. Those charities, who have been vetted by GreenFood can then claim the food and arrange to pick it up.
