Challenge

Featured on NBC. Doordash for communities in need. In a year, we helped recover 30+ restaurants, serve 3000+ free meals to 100+ families across 7 cities. OpenMeal.org is a 501(c)(3) online non-profit platform started during the beginning of Covid, allowing those in need to order food from minorities/family-owned restaurants with money funded by donations. Food-insecure individuals would receive $20/week in credits which they can use to browse for nearby participating restaurants and place an order directly from the OpenMeal site for pick up. As opposed to foodbanks, our diners are given the autonomy and freedom to choose their own quality meals and pick up time while bringing business back to minorities/family-owned restaurants.
