The Foodbank Singapore is proud to announce that we are a supporting organization of the Economist Impact’s third annual Technology for Change Asia happening March 20th and 21st 2023 at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore.

 

At The Food Bank Singapore, we are committed to driving social change through the use of technology. Over the years, we have made incredible strides towards reducing food waste and ensuring that those in need have access to nutritious food. Through the use of technology, we have been able to increase our efficiency and impact, salvaging over 550 tonnes of food per year.

 

The Food Bank Singapore has been a pioneer in using technology to address food insecurity with the goal of bringing more autonomy to our beneficiaries. One of our most novel initiatives is the Food Pantry 2.0, which serves as an automated platform to dispense emergency food aid 24/7 to those in need. Through this initiative, we identify clients in need and provide them with Bank Cards loaded with pre-loaded credits to receive food, both cooked ready-to-eat meals and non-perishable items from the vending machines placed in over 40 locations islandwide.

 

In addition, we believe in providing a sense of freedom and independence that often is absent from food insecure individuals and families. With the Bank Cards, beneficiaries can receive food from participating F&B outlets, like Subway, under the Feed The City Tap A Meal initiative.

 

We believe that by leveraging technology, we can address some of society’s most pressing challenges and create a more sustainable and equitable future for all. To find out more about the event: https://events.economist.com/technology-for-change-week/

More than 150 organisations providing food aid are listed

Singapore – November 22, 2022 – The Food Bank Singapore (FBSG) today launched The Feeding Directory (FindFoodSupport.sg) to help those looking for food support near them.

More than 150 of FBSG’s feeding partners located across Singapore are listed in the directory.

Food aid is not new to Singapore with many groups providing assistance to the hungry since the nation’s independence. However, according to The Hunger Report Part II released in March, only 22 percent of those identified as food insecure households are receiving assistance.

“To achieve our goal of ending food insecurity in the next few years, FBSG feels that it is vital to find a way to let those in need know where the aid is,” said Nichol Ng, Co-founder of FBSG.

The Feeding Directory connects social workers, food insecure households and anyone in search of food support to organisations that provide food aid such as cooked meals, food vouchers, food rations, and even daily essentials from FBSG’s The Food Pantry vending machines.

Created after extensive groundwork, the website lets people search for food support by type of help needed, location of the nearest support organisations, and food and beverage (F&B) outlets that are part of FBSG’s Bank Card programme.

“The Feeding Directory is not just for populating locations of non-governmental organisations within our network, but also aims to become a national feeding directory where all organisations with a feeding programme will be listed. We are asking charities and the public to inform us if they know of more food programmes in Singapore. In isolation, we can do little but as a collective, we can move the needle for those facing hunger issues,” said Ng.

About The Food Bank Singapore Ltd
Established in 2012, The Food Bank Singapore (www.foodbank.sg) is Singapore’s first food bank and aims to be the prevailing centralised coordinating organisation for all food donations in Singapore. Driven by its mission to eradicate food insecurity of all forms in Singapore by 2025, the registered charity bridges potential donors and member beneficiaries by collecting and redistributing donated food. Its members are registered charity organisations or special organisations with a designated meal programme for low income and underprivileged individuals and families. Through a network of more than 300 such organisations of all sizes, the food bank serves more than 100,000 families and over 300,000 people with all kinds of food – from fresh to cooked.

During the June holidays, we had over 100 Juniors Club members gather from all over Singapore attend our June sessions! We had a fun and engaging “Adventures with Bala and Friends” programme for our children ages 5-9 years old and “Joy in Every Bundle” programme for our 10-16 years old. Our little ones participated in hands-on activities to develop an understanding of food waste and food insecurity.
What is FBSG’s Juniors Club Programme?

FBSG’s Juniors Club Programme builds awareness among the littlest members of our community and involves them in making an impactful, positive social change. Here at The Food Bank Singapore, we believe that it is critical to plant the seed of service and social responsibility starting at a young age. Through a range of experiential learning opportunities and a highly engaging curriculum, our young participants develop an understanding of food insecurity and food wastage in Singapore. This empowers them to take informed, purposeful steps towards ending hunger.

We are very grateful to all the children who attended these sessions and all the parents who supported our event! A big thank you to all the volunteers who led these sessions and not forgetting our very own FBSG team that made this possible.
AND IT’S A WRAP!

2022 has been a year of uncertainty and insecurity.

According to the latest MAS survey, the overall inflation rate for the whole of 2022 is projected to reach 5%. Consequently, food prices have and will inevitably rise. Along with unexpected events such as Malaysia’s halt of chicken exports, panic buying and hoarding, anyone at any moment can be vulnerable to food insecurity, even in an affluent country such as Singapore.

Food insecurity is a real threat and Food banks are vital to supporting families in need before, during and after a crisis. Help FBSG continue our crucial work in service of our community.

Here is how you can help:

To Fund a Beneficiary for 1 Month, SGD$100 is all it takes. (S$3.30 per day, less than a cup of bubble tea)

  • SGD$25 pledges 1 Food Bundle to 1 Beneficiary.
  • SGD$50 funds 1 Food Bank Card to 1 Beneficiary for 15 Days.
  • SGD$100 funds 1 Food Bank Card to 1 Beneficiary for 30 Days.
