Gift A Plate Lets Users Donate Meals To Families In Need

A new, nonprofit organization, Gift A Plate, is working with local restaurants in Los Angeles, to allow people to donate to help both restaurants and families in need. The organization--launched by Silicon Valley startup Plate IQ, HotSchedules, and others--said it is looking to help aid restaurants and families who have been greatly impacted by COVID-19 in LA. The organization said that local Los Angeles restaurants, including Pink Taco, Barcade, Solita, Tocaya, El Torito, Acapulco, The Stand, Holy Cow, Bacari and Sol will use those donations to produce meals for local shelters and food banks that are partnered with Gift A Plate. Gift A Plate says it is working with local restaurants, shelters and food banks in NYC, LA and San Francisco, with plans to expand to additional cities soon.
