We are a sharing community where members give to each other things that we no longer want, so that all have enough.
๐Today at ๐๐ถ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐ (51 Bishan Street 13, Singapore 579799), from ๐ฏ.๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฝ๐บ ๐๐ผ ๐ต.๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฝ๐บ, we are giving away rescued food to anyone who wants it, while stocks last.

๐ For the past one year, we have been giving away rescued food from Kaybie, our community van, every week at different places around the island, to anyone who wants it.

๐ This is unsold food from businesses that food rescuers collect. We share it with people who want it. This helps reduce food waste and build community spirit.
๐๐ป๐๐ปโโ๏ธ Rescued food is for everyone, because everyone needs food. When you collect rescued food from us, we wonโt ask for your income level or work status. We want you to love rescued food. As more people help to collect and eat rescued food, we will have less food waste.
๐ธ To help us in our mission, we will be taking photos and videos for our social media as you collect the food from our van. If you prefer not to show your face, you can hide it behind a large vegetable or fruit. If you donโt agree to this, please do not collect food from us. Please note that there will also be media present at this event.

๐ฅฌ Today we bring you rescued vegetables and fruits from our partner Fridge Restock Community SG.
There are 3 things you need to take note of when you collect the food:
1๏ธโฃ You can collect as much as you can fit into the basket provided.
2๏ธโฃ Please check the tag on each item to see the limit of how many you can take.
3๏ธโฃ You will have 3 minutes to take what food you want.
Please take what you need, but donโt waste the food.

The quality of rescued food is lower than what you buy, thatโs why they canโt sell it. But cannot sell doesnโt mean cannot eat. Do a look, smell, taste test before eating the food. Wash ๐ฆ the food before cooking or eating it.

If you pick and choose, you may damage the food that you donโt want. This creates more food waste. Just take what you need and move on. Donโt pick and choose. ๐
โ๏ธ ๐ฃ๐๐๐๐ฆ๐ ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐:
Masks are optional. Our volunteers who handle the food will be masked.
Only 1 person to collect. Spouses, partners, and helpers are not allowed to accompany you. If the basket is too heavy, we have a volunteer to help you carry. Children are allowed to accompany you.
When you are done taking, please go to the table provided to transfer what you have collected to your own bag or trolley and return us the basket.
