Food Donation Box Sharing

The 93rd Coy, with the help of our school’s Learning for Life Programme fund, adopted a Food Bank box
in the school. Our Boys shared about the Box during assembly and the school committed to use the Box to
conduct regular donation drive over six months.

From this BB CARES service learning experience, the 93rd Coy had rediscovered the joy of working
together within the community to benefit others.

                                       “The willingness and the spontaneity of the
                                       students in gathering food donations from Pasir
                                       Panjang Wholesale Centre was commendable.
                                       Being in an unfamiliar environment, they had
                                       stepped up to the task and their efforts were
                                       well appreciated by the elderly folks who had
                                       received the fresh vegetables.”

“I appreciated learning about all   “Despite the initial setbacks we
the steps involved in executing     faced whilst talking to the business
a successful community service      owners, I am glad that we managed
project. I found out that it isn’t  to influence them and our school to
as simple as I thought and that     support the cause”
it included a lot of meticulous
planning beforehand.”               SGT Jerome Lim
