Describe the challenge you want to address:

Food insecurity and food waste. A lot of New Yorkers go hungry while a lot of restaurants throw out tons of food.

What is the solution to the challenge?

Community fridges are something far and few between. I wonder if there is a way to set up more community fridges or provide education on how to maintain community fridges and how to donate. I know that for community fridges it is usually required that labels are put on foods. Maybe we could provide easy to fill out labels for local restaurants.
