Northern European countries are making it a crime for retail stores to throw away food. I am happy about their vigilance and programs to get food to their hungry.

Here is a program I am recommending for USA: "Food For Hungry USA Online Foodbank" https://www.facebook.com/FoodForHungryUSAOnlineFoodbank/

The goals for "Food For Hungry USA" are: to facilitate hungry USA homeless to access free food immediately, when and where they are hungry, to prevent good food products from being thrown away, to save the middleman food banks some effort, and to create "free food labels" to be used in retail food (grocery) stores and restaurants which will allow distribution of free food for hungry USA.

The "Food For Hungry USA Online Foodbank" at retail food stores or restaurants would allow homeless and hungry USA to register online for access to Food For Hungry USA Online Foodbank. Upon registration and acceptance into the program the Registrant will be able to benefit by accessing marked-down food through any one of the networked grocery stores, retail food outlets, restaurants, caterers, etc. sponsoring the online food bank. The qualified registrant will be able to take free "mark-down" food (food that would otherwise be thrown away or eventually picked up by food banks). The goal of the program is to feed hungry USA Homeless and impoverished citizens using available food at every grocery store, retail food outlet and restaurant everyday, any time USA hungry Homeless and impoverished citizens are in need. Marked-down food quantity is limited to twelve (12) products per person per day and recorded on their Food For Hungry USA Online Foodbank ID account.

My program will allow adult homeless in USA to immediately access food and will save some "middle-man" efforts collecting unwanted and marked down food gathering the food and taking it to an official grocery store style food bank. Grocery store Food Bank distribution of food will not be disrupted, only enhanced by making food (in particular hot food, diary, frozen food and fresh produce that would not make it to a food bank) immediately available to the hungry. Food banks wait for homeless and impoverished to walk-in and pick up their stocked food, and much free food gets thrown away. Food For Hungry USA Online Foodbank will make free food available when and where the Hungry USA citizens are in need. Food For Hungry USA Online Food bank keeps the food quality at its' peak when USA Hungry Homeless are able to select and immediately check food out from the grocery store vs. waiting to schedule an appointment for food bank assistance. Food bank food has been marked down, stored, transported and shelved across a couple days. Food for Hungry USA Citizens will make food available immediately at the retail food store or restaurant who manages and uses Food For Hungry USA software and posts the Food For Hungry USA identification in the store window. The Food For Hungry USA Online Foodbank will provide a website, and an app to easily manage the program. Homeless can track their remaining "purchases" each day and see their balance on their receipt.

More food destined to be thrown away will be put directly in the hands of the hungry. This program is a win-win.

Please contact me. I am seeking grant funding to launch the initial pilot program. @FoodForHungryUSAOnlineFoodBank https://www.facebook.com/FoodForHungryUSAOnlineFoodbank/

Explanation for limiting Food For Hungry USA Online Foodbank to USA citizens:

The reason for limiting Food For Hungry USA Online Foodbank program to USA citizens is to establish a pilot program within the needy and more limited group of impoverished, the USA citizen. USA hosts between one to two million homeless citizens of every race. @EndingHomelessnessForUSACitizens and @FoodForHungryUSAOnlineFoodbank are efforts toward ending homelessness and poverty within USA.

There are more than 12 million illegal immigrants within USA in various stages of financial need many illegal immigrants (undocumented workers) are not financially needy. To begin the online foodbank it makes sense to limit the program to USA citizens of every race with legal USA identity. The problems associated with illegal immigrants being included in this social program of charity and compassion is the sheer quantity of twelve million illegal immigrants within USA compared to only two million homeless USA citizens (of every race).

USA illegal immigrants are not green card holders and do not have U.S.A. I-9 verified identity https://www.uscis.gov/i-9 , https://www.uscis.gov/i-9-central/acceptable-documents,

http://www.ct.gov/dmv/cwp/view.asp?a=805&q=471456 , https://cis.org/Report/Illegal-Not-Undocumented. USA is currently reviewing its’ policies allowing illegal immigration as a racially biased act. http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2014/06/13/1-in-4-native-americans-and-alaska-natives-are-living-in-poverty/

Poverty and race/ethnicity[edit]

The US Census declared that in 2014 14.8% of the general population lived in poverty:[40]

28.3% of Native Americans / Alaska Natives (1,132,000 est.)

26.2% of all African American persons (9,400,000 est.)

23.6% of all Hispanic persons including illegal immigrants (13,000,000 est.)

12.0% of all Asian persons (2,000,000 est.)

10.1% of all white non-Hispanic persons (24,000,000 est. the largest population of poor, by headcount)

Estimated Sum: 50,000,000 U.S.A. citizens in poverty 2017. 2,000,000 U.S.A. citizens are homeless and in poverty.

According to the 2010–2015 American Community Survey, the racial composition of the United States in 2015 was: [47]
