Mission
LocalGreen’s mission is to empower minority-owned local businesses and diversify the business landscape by using technology to amplify local business and encourage consumers to choose them.
The Problem/Inspiration
The COVID-19 epidemic has taken a toll on the economy, especially small/local businesses. While the government has offered support to local businesses during this difficult time, the public itself needs to do its part to support local businesses too. Furthermore, there is no easy way for consumers to find minority-owned local businesses.
Our Solution
LocalGreen is a solution to both these issues. We provide a central database where users can explore female, black, and LGBTQ+ owned local businesses in their city.
How we built it
We used an IDE called Glitch, and coded in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Challenges we ran into
Coordinating our 3 different timezones!
