ABSTRACT- Food wastage remains a critical global challenge, with a significant portion of edible food being discarded despite widespread hunger and food insecurity. Existing food management and donation systems often operate in isolation, lacking real time coordination, intelligent monitoring, and integrated decision support. To address these limitations, this paper presents Carevia, an AI powered real time food expiry and donation management system designed to optimize food utilization and facilitate efficient redistribution. The proposed system integrates a MERN stack based web platform with intelligent features such as automated expiry tracking, smart notification mechanisms, QR code based verification, and an AI driven chatbot for user assistance. By continuously monitoring food expiry data and enabling seamless interaction between donors and non governmental organizations (NGOs), the system ensures timely donation of safe and consumable food. Additionally, the platform enhances transparency and trust through secure authentication, real time communication, and verifiable donation workflows. The proposed approach aims to reduce food wastage, improve donation efficiency, and support sustainable food management practices. The system demonstrates the potential of combining modern web technologies with artificial intelligence to create a scalable and socially impactful solution aligned with global sustainability goals.
