The Foodspotting Spotathon challenge is the ultimate tool for the foodie community. Using geo-location to share, like and incite desire for delicious food items, this app will ensure everyone is well fed.
Foodspotting users who would like to participate are asked to check-in and find a series of items. In turn the geo-location app will donate a cow, a pig and a vegetable garden to less fortunate families this holiday. Users have until Christmas day to spot all items from the Foodspotting Spotathon Challenge.
