Bag/Get will be a free, open-source alternative to paid food pantry management systems. It aims to benefit food equity and accessibility for disadvantaged groups by challenging the existing oligopoly and introducing additional key features. The application will feature an extensive inventory management system with custom or template storage categories to improve productivity for understaffed pantries. The Wish List system allows coordinators to set up flexible donation goals manually or via custom item capacity parameters. Each pantry will possess a Homepage, featuring contact information, accessibility tags, and a calendar module for appointment scheduling. The Pantry Finder page will enable users to discover Homepages and apply filters, including item availability, food needs, and language preferences. Users can Follow a Homepage, populating their Community Feed with announcements, opportunities, and donation requests. Overall, Bag/Get streamlines pantry management and promotes social equity by providing free, accessible food pantry services to those in need.

Transgender individuals are subject to unique health disparities which afflict both physiological and psychological harm. As the visibility of the transgender community has increased in the public consciousness, so too has the demand increased for gender-affirming healthcare products and services. Despite this need, transgender individuals continue to report a lack of accessible transgender medical resources. TranscendCare directly addresses the issue of transgender accessibility to healthcare services by enabling questioning and selfidentifying transgender individuals to directly take control of their gender-affirming healthcare experience. This is achieved through the utilization of an integrated PDA device, myEgg, which centralizes transgender medical resources and patient information such as affirming-care provider directories and patient treatment plans. Informed by the real-world experiences of stakeholders in the transgender community, myEgg also serves as a personal companion tool for transgender individuals to connect with their local gender non-conforming community in a safe, moderated environment. The combination of tangible healthcare resources with a community-based approach to individual wellness defines myEgg as a novel solution to transgender healthcare diversity, equity, and inclusion.

More than 86.3 million Americans are disabled (CDC 2022). Even with the implementation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in 1990, approximately 30% of American businesses and public spaces remain non-accommodating to those with disabilities (IAMV 2020). Additionally, our research survey of 11 local disabled folks indicated in their interviews that they all experienced difficulty navigating public spaces independently. OpenDoors aims to create a nationwide disabled-led review site for ADA compliance of local businesses. By crowdsourcing reviews from disabled individuals, we will create a thorough ADA access guide for the disabled. OpenDoors also accommodates both visible and invisible disabilities with its reviews. OpenDoors' reviews will also ensure businesses are held accountable for being accessible for our entire disabled community, as is mandated by law. OpenDoors aims to empower disabled voices, encourage public spaces and businesses to improve accessibility, and foster a more inclusive society.
