VOA常速英语:食物共享应用的开发者想喂饱全世界

The creator of the Chowberry App has a clear motivation for creating his new food sharing application.
Chowberry的开发者在该食物共享应用创建之初就有很明确的动机。

“There was a phase in the family where my dad was temporary ill and out of work and I remember vividly during that time period the challenge at home was access to a wholesome meal.A quality meal we could go a day or two without having a quality meal. ”
“此前我们家有段时期，我父亲因病不能工作，我清楚的记得在那段时间里，家里吃一顿营养健康的饭都很困难。吃过一顿像样的饭之后，得一到两天后才能再吃到一顿像样的饭菜。”

He wants to try and make sure other kids don’t have to go through what he went through.
他想确保其他孩子不必经历他所经历的一切。

“This was something that affected me psychologically and also impacted on my academy,and I always said sometime in the future I would resolve this problem.I would leverage my abilities and capacities to ensure that others don’t go through what I went through. ”
“这些事情不仅影响了我的心理，也同样影响了我的学业，我总是说将来某个时候我会解决这个问题。我会利用自己的能力和能量来确保别人不再经历我所历经的一切。”

Rather than ending up in a landfills food that has passed its best by date is still safe to eat and fresh. The App allows store owners to upload information on the food they can’t sell.Charities buy the food they needed a discounted price and deliver it to those who need it.
比起被丢进垃圾堆，这些虽然错过最佳食用日期但仍然新鲜安全的食品被吃掉才更能物尽其责。商店老板通过这款应用上传过期禁售的食品信息，而慈善机构通过该应用购买他们所需的打折食品，并将其交付给需要的人。

“It’s so difficult for me to give food to feed my family,because I don’t have what to do.So it was people’s App that I manage to feed my children, but now things will be better for me.”
“找吃的养家对我而言太难了，因为我根本什么都没有。所以通过这个软件我就能养活我的孩子们，现在情况对我而言好太多了。”

The App is good for everyone because food stores make a small profit by selling food they would normally throw away.“The long-term goal is to have this platform evolve into a big data platform and a value proposition is simple.Simply plug the wastes that is going on the food value chain and redirect what would have been wasted to those that need it the most.”
这款应用对每个人都有好处，因为商店也能通过出售他们通常扔掉的食物获得一点小利润。“创始人的长期目标是将该平台发展成为一个大数据平台，它的价值主张也很简单，就是将废物简单的插进正在进行的食物链中，并且将这些废物重新转移到需要的人手中。”
