Feeding America: Improving the Way America Gets Fed
 Every day, more than 49 million Americans struggle with hunger. Aidmatrix and Feeding America, the nation's leading domestic hunger-relief charity, partner together to use technology in the fight against hunger in the United States. Feeding America helps provide food assistance to more than 37 million people each year. Traditionally, Feeding America, their food bank employees, and their 61,000 hunger-relief agencies processed product donations manually, via fax or telephone. Aidmatrix partnered with Feeding America to tackle this challenge by creating systems that maximize the efficiency of the Feeding America network of food banks and ultimately, to serve more people in need.
