Alvin Tan: Project Rescue Veggies

Alvin Tan is one of many unsung heroes at Kembangan-Chai Chee who roll up their sleeves to help out our residents in need. 👏🏼

About Kembangan-Chai Chee Project Rescue Veggies

Kembangan-Chai Chee Grassroots Organisations has been working with Fridge Restock Community (FRC) to provide rescued fruits and vegetables collected from Pasir Panjang Warehouse Centre.

The objective is to be eco-friendly, which focus on sustainability and help to reduce food wastage in Singapore. As a result of participating in the project, residents learn that “ugly fruits and vegetables” can be used to prepare nutritious meals albeit with a little personal creativity. The initiatives also brought people together and step forward to community volunteering.

Kembangan-Chai Chee has set up 5 distribution points to-date with about 300 residents in all benefiting from the rescued fruits and vegetables. Kembangan-Chai Chee also installed 2 physical community fridges within the division to allow residents to have ease of collection if they are physically present during the allotted distribution schedule.
