The Soup Kitchen Project (Singapore)
This group is for kind folks who want to contribute to The Soup Kitchen Project at Food #03.
The project is an initiative to feed the poor in Singapore. The primary target is the poor in the vicinity of Food #03 - Little India - including the homeless, cardboard and can collectors, old folks who live in 1-room flats and stranded foreign workers.
As Food #03 is closed every Monday, it is possible to operate the soup kitchen on Mondays. Whether we do it every week, fortnightly or once a month depends on how many volunteers there are.
The basic idea is that on the Sunday night prior, volunteers will go to the nearby market to gather vegetables which are meant to be thrown away. These will then be processed and cooked on Monday. And once the food is ready, it will be distributed to the needy on Monday night.
The Soup kitchen has distributed 71 meals since Feb 2009.
Thank you to the following Volunteers for making this possible: list to be published.

A4 for old folks
Recycle paper and help the less fortunate at the same time. A simple campaign to collect used A4 paper at Food #03 and we will pass this on to rag and bone men / Women. This is about passing on these resources to the smaller individuals than handing your paper to big recycle companies.
Collection of Plastic Bags & Takeaway containers
Collection of plastic bags and take-away containers > yes, we can re-use your mountain of plastic bags and take-away containers.
We keep our food fresh and so at the end of the day, we give our food away to friends and some less fortunate around our area.
So, your plastic bags and take-away containers will come in handy. Bring them along the next time you come to Food #03.
