The Pantry project is intended to help manage food pantry services and record keeping. Initially, this encompasses:

• Records of individuals and households
• Management of "products" and "services" available
• Records of two types of events:
  • Assistance Service - providing financial aid (e.g. money for prescriptions) or time (e.g. job skills training)
  • Pantry Service - giving of food and household goods
• Comprehensiveness of data vs. flexibility of administration
  • As pantries can receive funding based on these records, it's important that the data can be recorded efficiently (user friendly and intuitive!) and accurately (reporting!)
  • No two pantries are alike, so the manner of providing services and other particular details should be manageable by the application without hard coded constraints
