Its members are registered charity organizations or special organizations with a designated meal programme for low income and underprivileged individuals and families. Through a network of more than 370 such organizations of all sizes, the food bank serves more than 100,000 families and over 300,000 people with all kinds of food – from fresh to cooked.
Mr. Chow, who joined in 2019, is passionate in helping the community and believes in the importance of taking the first step to end hunger and fight food waste. Together with the Food Bank team, his focus is on improving efficiency and innovative projects coupled with technology to provide solutions to the food distribution landscape in Singapore.
