Project Highlight: Code+ 2020 Project Making an Impact at Duke

What started as a project idea for a Code+ 2020 student team -- to build an application to address food insecuriy at Duke -- went into production in November 2021. The "Donate Food Points  to Food-Insecure Students" team built the application from scratch, and launched "Feed Every Devil," which is already making an impact on Duke students.
