Food from the Heart

Last night, we were presented the Merit Award by Minister Edwin Tong SC at the People’s Association Community Spirit (PACS) Awards 2024. This honour is in recognition of our contributions to the Queenstown division of Tanjong Pagar GRC, through our Community Shop @ Lengkok Bahru. Under this #GivingBetter initiative, we provide around 750 lower-income individuals and families with monthly food support, and better access to nutritious fresh produce. Thank you People's Association for the acknowledgement! The PACS Award is given to exemplary partners who have assisted in building social capital and contributed to the community. It was truly an inspiring evening for us to be in the company of over 140 exceptional agencies to celebrate the kampung spirit and our shared efforts to uplift and care for those in need amongst us. Bravo to all the other Award Recipients! In a fast-paced city, it's easy to overlook those who are struggling daily to make ends meet. With your support and trust, we will achieve greater impact through our work. Stay tuned for news on the expansion of our Community Shop network! cc Edwin Tong SC Robin C.

EFG International's donation of over 4,600 food items comes at a perfect time as donations have slowed down over the last few months. This generous donation will go directly to our Community Food Pack programme that feeds close to 12,000 families each month! We are incredibly grateful for EFG International's partnership, this will help us to continue providing #consistent and #reliable support to our beneficiaries 🫶🏼 If you are keen to hold a food drive within your organisation, email [email protected] to find out more ✨

As we celebrate our Nation's independence, we are also reminded of the lives we touch and the community that comes together to support us in what we do! It was a joy to be at the Marsiling National Day Dinner and Celebration, and to witness the impact that we have on the community ✨ We will continue to serve the community with heart and ensure that our families will always receive reliable and consistent support! ❤️

Food donations coming in have slowed down in the past few months. However, close to 60,000 Singaporeans rely on our food support every month. Every year in August, we organise a food donation drive in celebration of National Day by rallying the community to come together for one common goal: Donate food to help less-fortunate Singaporeans. National Day Food Donation Drive: 28,000 FOOD ITEMS NEEDED! 📍Community Shop @ Boon Lay (Blk 176 Boon Lay Drive #01-366 S640176) 📆 Sat, 17 Aug 2024 ⏰ 9am - 6pm More details here: https://lnkd.in/gFjyxZtg Together, as One People for 🇸🇬 #SGUnited See you there! #NationalDay #SG #Singapore #charityevent #charitydrive #fooddrive #donations #Red #White

More than two decades, #BreadRun is still going as strong as ever 💪 A #throwback to last year, in celebration of our 20th anniversary, we paid a tribute to how our charity was founded in 2003: Bread Run. A simple idea of rechanneling excess bread to the less-fortunate, but a whole lot of #dedication and #compassion to keep it going everyday for 20 years, rain or shine! We cannot express our gratitude enough towards the 11 long-service bakery partners (one of them being BreadTalk Group Pte Ltd!) and 61 founding year #BreadRunners (volunteers), for believing in our vision and helping us deliver on our mission all these years. If you are a F&B player in Singapore - retailer, manufacturer, importer and wholesaler - join our ecosystem to put excess or near-expiry food to charitable use.

Today, we wrapped up an eventful month with PAP Community Foundation (PCF) at their inaugural PCF Charity Week 2024. We were honoured to receive a donation of $20,000 from their CMC Chairperson, Minister Josephine Teo, a generous demonstration of PCF's dedication to “DO GOOD”. A champion of children, seniors and families, PCF's team prepared over 800 food packs over the past three Saturdays at our warehouse this month. As a finale of their volunteering, they also delivered food packs to over 40 households on Wednesday morning. With nearly 60,000 beneficiaries to feed monthly, every bit of help goes a long for us. Across every level and department, including their leadership Mr Victor Bay, your positivity and hands-on commitment is commendable and truly inspiring. Thank you for contributing your resources in to help us build a stronger community for everyone. Your support is timely to help communities in need defray their financial burden, in times of rising costs of living.
