Our story
Two nonprofits, one front door.
GreenSteam is co-built by the DreamSteam Foundation and the Green Guru Project. Two registered 501(c)(3) nonprofits. One shared aim: give students a clear path into real food rescue work.
Across the country, students need verified service hours for the National Honor Society, Bright Futures, college applications, and graduation requirements. Across the same country, good food goes to waste every day: restaurants, cafés, and grocers throw out perfectly good surplus while food banks, shelters, and community fridges go short.
These two worlds barely connect. Most students don't know which local businesses give away surplus food, or which programs need it. GreenSteam is the bridge, a curated directory of food sources and donation programs, so a student can find surplus nearby, arrange a pickup, and deliver it where it's needed, documenting real service along the way.
GreenSteam is the bridge.
See it in action
From surplus to service, in real time.
Students find local surplus food, connect with programs that need it, and document every rescue. This is what the bridge looks like on the ground.
Equal billing, equal authorship
Co-founded by two nonprofit founders
GreenSteam is built jointly by Arjun Bajpai (founder of the DreamSteam Foundation) and Shaan Guru (founder of the Green Guru Project). It operates under the 501(c)(3) status of both organizations, not one with the other as a sponsor. Two nonprofits, equal billing.
Neither nonprofit is the "parent". GreenSteam exists because both decided it should.
