A great many people don't understand how a lot of nourishment they discard each day — from uneaten remains to ruined produce. Around 95 percent of the nourishment we hurl away finishes in landfills or ignition offices. In 2013, we discarded in excess of 35 million tons of nourishment squander. Numerous individuals wish to give things to penniless associations. Likewise, many associations wish to request different things required by them, for example, garments, nourishment grains, books, utensils, and so on., however, there is no source accessible through which they can fulfill their prerequisites. Along these lines, an Android application has been created through which individuals can give things according to their ability and the application additionally enables associations to set up their solicitations, for example, things required by them assuming any. Most of the populace today utilize cell phones with dynamic web association, which is the essential necessity for this item to work appropriately.

India is a country where the economic status has reached a high level that tons of available edible food are thrown away as waste in every stage of marketing. The food waste is approximated 25% of the amount of edible food. The food is an important energy-demanding product group and resource. The prevention of food waste can be done by contributing to save resources as well as to reduce environmental impact during all stages of the marketing system. The objective of this project is to create a mobile application to assist users in managing their food inventory. The application would store and display basic information about the inventory contents and alerts the user of the food products which are due to expire the next day. Consequently, users may take actions to avoid the concerned products get wasted or spoiled. It is believed that a considerable amount of food waste would be avoided in households if the occupants are well-informed of the timeline of their food stocks. The app will solve the problems related to food wastage as INDIANS waste as much food as the whole of United Kingdom consumes – a statistic that may not so much indicative of our love of surfeit, as it is of our population. Still, food wastage is an alarming issue in India. Our street and garbage bins, landfills have sufficient proof to prove it. Household waste makes up approximately 90% of the 30 million tonnes of the Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) generated each year. In 2007(a) a DEFRA report suggested that household waste per person per year was around 450kg. This is a huge amount of waste for individuals to be throwing away and with around 31% being made up of household food waste there is significant room for large scale reductions.

In the ideation process, my intent was to come up with a solution that can create a social impact. Since there are NGOs like Akshaya Patra Foundation who are working for giving foods to the underprivileged. The main objective of this project was to provide a viable solution that allows mobile users to track the life cycle of their food inventory efficiently. With all waste, there will be barriers to improving waste management performance, whether economic or social factors. These barriers must be removed and possible solutions for the disposal of food waste found to reduce the amount of household food waste that is just landfilled. There are a lot of food-related apps which does some kind of heath and activity tracking of a person. But none of them offer so much option that this app will provide, It'll tell who all have excess food to donate, a tutorial on how to pack the food and donate it. It'll let the NGOs or the distributers know where all there is a need for food and details of nearby slum areas/ orphanages etc. 

The item targets fulfilling the necessities of destitute associations through gifts over the net. The application will ask the client/benefactor to enlist his/her subtleties into the framework and afterward, he/she can sign in and set up things to give. Thus, associations can enlist in the framework and afterward set up their thing prerequisites. Likewise, a giver can see the rundown of things set up by searchers and can give the equivalent, if conceivable. Similarly, searchers can see the rundown of things set up by benefactors and whenever required, can guarantee the gave thing by reaching the giver. The application is created utilizing Android Studio and the dialects utilized are center Java and XML. The principal goals of the proposed application incorporate a decrease in wastage of nourishment, making nourishment, making nourishment, garments, and so forth accessible to halfway houses, mature age homes, and other such associations, which will likewise instill benefits of sharing and affectability among individuals.

In profoundly populated nations like India, nourishment wastage is an upsetting issue. The lanes, trash canisters, and landfills have sufficient evidence to demonstrate it. Relationships, flasks, eateries, social and family parties and capacities oust out so much nourishment. Nourishment wastage isn't just a sign of yearning or then again contamination yet additionally of numerous financial issues. The elevated expectation of living has brought about the wastage of nourishment, garments, and so forth due to speedy changes in propensities and way of life. Rather than squandering these things we can place them being used by giving them to different associations, for example, halfway houses, mature age homes, and so on. The item is a web-based android application that essentially goes for philanthropy through gifts.

The sustenance approach serves to avoid the fissure between the Ngo and Donor. The methodology serves to give the sustenance squander to the destitute people who are doing combating for sustenance. The approach joins these two, in such a course, to the point that these NGOs can convince the "sustenance to be wasted" without trouble, and the hotels/restaurants/party-entryways find these sustenance searchers with no extra effort then it will serve an increasingly vital reason and will be a huge organization to humanity. This methodology serves to overhaul open pictures of hotels, diners who are giving sustenance what's more, it serves to extra money. It diminishes the overbuying of sustenance also, lessens natural impacts. On the separation, it helps destitute people to get sustenance with a particular ultimate objective to endure life.
