Via <a href="http://www.php-mag.net/magphpde/magphpde_news/psecom,id,25832,nodeid,5.html>this post</a> from the PHP Magazine site today, we learn about how PHP (along side several other open source solutions) is helping to improve the distribution of food and resources at the Ottowa Food Bank.

The first phase of FoodNet is to develop food ordering and information sharing systems so that a city-wide network of missions, food cupboards and other food distributors can better communicate with the food bank, said executive director Peter Tilley. In the second phase of the project, the Food Bank will work with the Social Planning Council of Ottawa on an agency boundary-mapping system and a rapid agency look-up utility.

<a href="http://www.ottawabusinessjournal.com/293105797015163.php">The system</a> is being developed by the several groups, but they opted to go with a PHP/SQL database solution over any of their software ultimately.
