Wholesome Wave founder Michel Nischan said that the term "food desert" becomes meaningless when healthy food gets delivered to your doorstep, according to a report by Fast Company. How it works is local organizations identify the most vulnerable and low-income community members. They are then asked to download the Tangelo app, and once approved, each will be provided with $40 per month, which they use to order produce deliveries for six months.”
