We are back with another round of Food Donation Drive!

Thirdspace and Change Our World are collaborating once again to collect food donations for lower income individuals and families. These donations would then be sent to Food from the Heart.

This time, we aim to collect 350 food items! Join us to help someone meet the rising cost of living:
📅 Saturday, 31 August 2024
⏰ 2pm – 4pm
📍 Bishan Active Park (near Basketball Court)

Food donations play a vital role in addressing food insecurity in Singapore. Through these donations, you are supporting Food from the Heart’s Community Food Pack programme which helps families in need defray the rising cost of living and allow them to focus on other pressings needs like utilities and medical bills.

How YOU can help:
1. Donate — refer to the list of items on our Wish List
2. Volunteer — we need youth volunteers (25 y/o and under) to help collect, sort & pack all donated items

Together, we can Impact Our World!
