Student Team Projects
We’re aiming to provide New Yorkers with pricing for fresh produce around the city and food bank locations. Many New Yorkers are not able to find inexpensive healthy food options, as a result these New Yorkers will tend to choose less healthy options or consume less food. We can use crowdsourcing to populate a map of natural healthy produce prices and where they are being sold. This way more New Yorkers can have access to healthier produce/foods at a reasonable price.
This is a website that was created to help those in need of free food resources. It was also created to help allow restaurants, food trucks, grocery stores, and anything in between to becoming more waste-free by giving back to the community. We are students in Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC) on a project called "Zero Hunger" for our Spring 2021 Make-A-Thon. We do this to help others in need of food.
Our mission is to provide educational help to students K-12 around the world to reduce poverty. There are many children around the world who want to study and get out of poverty what they might don’t know about the resources or chances that are given to those children or students who really want to do something for their families. Our mission is to ask for help and give help. For example, asking people who are interested in helping students, collecting their information, evaluate their needs, and providing them help.
Many Americas believe that protecting natural resources is very important. We can improve access to clean drinking water and reduce water waste. We think by using node-red flows and dashboards can help us to build a water quality dashboard. This idea requires us to use GeoJSON.
We want to create a website to connect businesses or organizations that are willing to provide help to non-political and non-profit organizations in our countries (E.x Dominican Republic, Venezuela) to provide equipment specialized to purify and clean the water, since those countries have very serious issues related to this service. Once the equipment is provided, organizations receiving the help would be able to report the progress to work with transparency.
