EngageCorps Community Support VISTA at Plentiful
 
 
 
"Plentiful is a non-profit committed to accelerating a connected food access ecosystem that prioritizes the needs of the individual. We develop inclusive software applications that make it easier for providers and partners to effectively serve those facing food insecurity, and to streamline access for those facing food insecurity. This approach ensures a more dignified experience for everyone involved, leading to more human-centered outcomes. Plentiful was launched in December 2016 as a pilot at three NYC pantries. Since then, over 500 pantries and 1M unique households have benefited from Plentiful. Our current products include: Plentiful: a free, easy-to-use tool for individuals to find, register for, and make reservations at local food pantries, soup kitchens, or other free food events. It is available via SMS or iOS, Android, and web apps in nine languages. Plentiful Providers: this platform is for food access points (pantries, soup kitchens, etc.) to connect to the ecosystem. Providers can claim their profile and use tools for efficient line management through registrations or reservations, communicate directly with clients, and see and report on data insights about their program. Plentiful is actively growing its impact via expansion to new markets and the development of additional product features and services, and is currently available in Metro Denver, New York, and New Jersey. This past year alone, we supported more than 1.8 million unique individuals and their families seeking charitable food."
