TU seniors win College Cup Innovation Challenge
|
|
This year’s College Cup winner is Everybody Eats—a food service that has a low cost menu to tackle food insecurity on campus and in the community, with part of the proceeds given back to the community.
“We’re pretty new into this but we’ve put in a lot of work already, raising over $700 in revenue and we’re just excited to keep going,” said TU Senior Jared Hamlin, one of the founders of Everybody Eats.
Hamlin and his co-founders, Bryce Carter and Bruno Verdonk, currently operate out of their dorm. The founders won $10,000 with hopes of buying a food truck and expanding to other areas. They also won placement in the StarTUp Accelerator.
