Case Study: DC Central Kitchen improves grant reporting with GoCanvas

How DC Central Kitchen Saved Time and Improved their Grant Reporting

DC Central Kitchen, a major nonprofit in the DC area, needed a better way to manage paper-based ordering and weekly grant reporting for its Healthy Corners program. Forms, emails, and phone calls made information hard to organize and led to miscommunication, delays, and missing details.

DC Central Kitchen switched to GoCanvas mobile apps in January 2014 and used tablets to collect orders, delivery confirmations, and grant reporting data on site. The change streamlined workflows, reduced data entry, and gave the team real-time information in the cloud. With more than 50 stores participating, Healthy Corners reached $40,000 in annual sales of healthy food options.
