We are looking for help at Community Plates (http://communityplates.org) - we are a non-profit that gets extra food (that is still good obviously) from restaurants and grocery stores that would normally be thrown out and we deliver it to food pantries and soup kitchens.
We use software to connect all of the volunteers with the food runs. We started in April and have over 100 volunteers plugged in to date and are growing quickly. We started in Fairfield County, CT to validate the concept and are so happy with the response we've gotten from the community. We're going to add a few more cities at the beginning of 2012.
On the dev side, it's built in PHP on the Kohana framework, with jQuery mobile, and it's tough for me to keep up on my own with my day job and would love some help although it will take a few hours to get your footing so it's probably not worth someone's time unless you can commit 20 hours or so.
If you or anyone else is interested or has any questions let me know.
