Love Fridge Chicago is a mutual aid network that places community-run fridges around the city to support those struggling with food insecurity. TechTeam worked with Love Fridge to analyze food scarcity and waste in Chicago with the goal of creating a compelling and informative visualization to raise awareness and attract donations. Additionally, we enhanced the visualization with an interactive component.
