GCCF is working alongside GCCA member Warehouses4Good to develop a pilot smartphone app that will connect food supply agencies with the owners of cold storage space. The goal is to reduce costs and build capacity for philanthropic food operations such as food pantries, meal kitchens, and food banks. Other benefits of this partnership include reducing food waste, enhancing food safety, and increasing access to food among underserved communities. Development is made possible by a grant from The Morningstar Foundation. This app will service the Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area, with the hope of expanding to the rest of the United States in the future.
