Food Angel continues to collect surplus edible food from Link’s fresh markets and shopping centres, transforming it into free meals and other food assistance for people in need. The programme is expected to rescue over 314 tonnes of food in a year and benefit more than one million beneficiaries. It also deepens the “Sustaining Love” Education and Youth Ambassador Programme by empowering tertiary students to promote a food-wise culture in the community, with new intergenerational elements bringing youth and elderly together through collaborative arts creation and community exhibitions, fostering inclusion while enhancing seniors’ confidence and social connections.
Surplus food are collected at 39 Link’s fresh markets, with food collection box available at 16 Link’s shopping centres below to collect unwanted dry food with an intact package and 4 weeks or more before expiration date.
