Food Oasis

Food Oasis is a web application that provides information about food pantries and meal programs to food seekers. It is implemented as a multi-tenant web application for websites in several different geographic areas:

The Los Angeles site is populated with vetted information on over 500 pantries and meal programs in Los Angeles County. At this time (March 2021), the the Los Angeles and McKinney, TX sites are populated with verfified listings, while other sites have little or no validated entries. Each site's data is only as good as the data entered by volunteers for the area.

If you are interested in volunteering to help enter and validate listings for your area, or establishing a new site for a new area, or are a developer wishing to contribute your effort to improving the application's functionality, please contact us!

The code base is entirely open source under the GPL Version 2 License, and is developed and managed by Hack for LA, a brigade of Code for America.
