This project is about combating food waste and addressing food insecurity in our society. Laura will be looking to work with university systems and schools to measure food waste and reuse in their dining facilities. The project will then look to create a program where leftover food at the end of the week can be packaged into to-go meals for members of the community who may not have the means to procure meals. This program will also include an educational component and pull on students to package and deliver the meals to drop off zones. Due to the current circumstances around the pandemic, and social distancing guidelines, the main measurable goal within August-December will be to create a food use and misuse inventory to understand where food waste is occurring as well as collection demographical information from the local community about what areas may be benefactors to the Reinventing Leftovers program.
