Community Food Waste Sharing Platform: A Web Based Solution for Food Waste

Food waste and hunger are serious social problems affecting millions of people worldwide. Large amounts of edible food are discarded daily by households, restaurants, and events, while many individuals lack access to proper nutrition. This paper proposes a Community Food Waste Sharing Platform, a web-based solution that connects food donors with NGOs and volunteers to enable efficient food redistribution. Donors can register surplus food details such as quantity, location, and time, while NGOs can request and collect food for distribution. The system includes user authentication, notifications, and basic tracking to ensure safe and timely delivery. The proposed platform helps reduce food wastage, supports underprivileged communities, and promotes sustainable and socially responsible practices through the use of digital technology.
