" There are many reasons to get excited.
First of all, it is the place where I can see how valuable my ideas are to create a positive impact on earth. This makes me more confident about myself.
Secondly, this fellowship will enable me to have a lot more learnings, gathering knowledge and networks as well. This will foster my growth and will make me more efficient to work for the betterment of our community.
Lastly, it's a place where people can have the chance to do something for people. That makes me happier as an individual. "

There will be a digital platform (app/website) that will be accessible to all the people (Cultivator & General)
The cultivators/farmers will have access to the supply chain system. They will be able to upload their products details (quantity, type, weight etc.). Thus, the volunteers will be able to distribute their crops on time where there is a demand. Thus, it will reduce the loss of harvest from getting rotten, unconsumed, and unmarketed. Which will be an impactful idea to supply necessary goods on time on demand.
The general segment is broad. People from all different classes will be connected through it. A family member from a family, a restaurant owner can post or let the volunteers know about their unconsumed food. Also, people from any ceremonial function, café, hotel, or community center can let the volunteers know about their surplus or unconsumed food. The volunteers will collect the food from that location or people and disburse it to the people who need the food.
Also, anyone suffering from a food crisis can request food. People can donate to run the project. Believing in the quota “Together we rise” by the collective effort, we can remove the hunger problem effectively.
