Terms of Use

Last updated: April 15, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Foodarity.org ("the Platform"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, you should not use the Platform. Foodarity.org is operated by Kool Krowd Ventures ("we," "us," or "our"), based in Rogers, Arkansas.

2. Description of Service

Foodarity.org is a technology platform that connects donors with families experiencing food insecurity. Donors contribute funds toward specific families or a general pool. When a family's funding reaches the designated threshold, the Platform facilitates a grocery delivery to that family. The Platform converts donations into food. No cash is disbursed to recipients at any time.

3. Not a Nonprofit Organization

Foodarity.org is not a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Donations made through the Platform are not tax-deductible. No tax receipts will be provided for donations unless and until the Platform operates under a qualified tax-exempt entity. This status may change in the future, and any such change will be reflected in an update to these terms.

4. Donor Terms

By making a donation through the Platform, you acknowledge and agree to the following:

• Donations are non-refundable once processed.
• Donations are used exclusively to purchase grocery items for families in need. A transparent operational fee (currently 12%) is deducted to cover payment processing, platform hosting, and operational costs. This fee is disclosed at checkout.
• You may direct your donation toward a specific family profile or contribute to a general pool. If a specific family's profile is removed or archived before their funding threshold is reached, your donation will be redirected to the general pool.
• You will receive an email confirmation of your donation and, where applicable, a notification when the family you funded receives their grocery delivery.
• You are donating amounts that you can afford. The Platform is not responsible for financial decisions made by donors.

5. Applicant Terms

By applying for food assistance through the Platform, you acknowledge and agree to the following:

• You must provide truthful and accurate information in your application. Misrepresentation of your circumstances may result in removal from the Platform and could result in legal action.
• Applications are subject to review and screening by the Platform operator. Submission of an application does not guarantee acceptance or funding.
• If your application is approved, a summary of your household information (first name, city, household size, number of children, employment status, and food category preferences) will be displayed publicly on the Platform to facilitate donor contributions. Your last name, email address, physical address, and other identifying information will not be displayed publicly.
• Your delivery address will be collected only at the time of fulfillment and will not be shared with other users of the Platform.
• The Platform will make reasonable efforts to deliver groceries matching your stated food category preferences, but exact items, brands, and quantities are subject to availability at the fulfillment retailer.
• You may be asked to re-qualify periodically if you seek repeated food assistance through the Platform.

6. Grocery Fulfillment

Grocery deliveries are fulfilled through third-party services, which may include Instacart, Walmart, or other grocery delivery providers. The Platform is not responsible for delays, substitutions, or issues arising from the third-party fulfillment process. The Platform does not manufacture, store, or directly handle food products.

7. Prohibited Conduct

You agree not to:

• Submit fraudulent applications or misrepresent your identity, household circumstances, or need for food assistance.
• Submit multiple applications under different identities.
• Use the Platform for any purpose other than its intended function of connecting donors with families in need of food assistance.
• Attempt to circumvent, disable, or interfere with the security or functionality of the Platform.
• Use automated systems, bots, or scripts to interact with the Platform without prior written authorization.

8. Intellectual Property

All content on the Platform, including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, and software, is the property of Kool Krowd Ventures or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from Platform content without prior written consent.

9. Limitation of Liability

The Platform is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Kool Krowd Ventures shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Platform, including but not limited to loss of data, loss of revenue, or damages resulting from the actions of third-party fulfillment providers.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Kool Krowd Ventures, its officers, employees, and affiliates from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the Platform, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of a third party.

11. Modifications

We reserve the right to modify these Terms of Use at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Platform after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

12. Governing Law

These Terms of Use are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Arkansas, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any disputes arising under these terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Benton County, Arkansas.
