About The Food Bank Singapore

Probably the first question on your mind right now is “What is a food bank?”

To make it really simple, a food bank is a place where companies or people can come to deposit or donate their unused or unwanted food which will then be collected and allocated to the needy through a network of member beneficiaries such as family service centres, various types of homes, soup kitchens, and other VWOs.
As the price of food continues to rise, many middle to low income families have problems putting food on the table as salaries are not increasing as quickly. Moreover, based on our observation, we do know that there are pockets of unused food within the food industry that can most certainly be put to better use.

Therefore, based on our sincere passion for food, The Food Bank Singapore was set out by Nichol & Nicholas Ng. To find out more about The Food Bank Singapore, simply navigate www.foodbank.sg .
