Do good friday: put your basic food preparation skills to good use at a soup kitchen

About Do Good Friday: Making time for some give-back in the coming week, but don’t know what to do? Break out of your usual TGIF ‘eureka’ moment every once in a while to check what’s buzzing in the local charity scene on our new series, launched May 2014. 

The situation: The Soup Kitchen Project Singapore‘s mission is simple — to feed the needy and the poor who call the vicinity of Jalan Besar and Lavender Road their home. This volunteer-run non-profit soup kitchen was started by the same guys behind independent cultural and social enterprise Post-Museum. The soup kitchen’s primary target is those living in one-bedroom flats, cardboard and can collectors, as well as Sungei Road vendors and the homeless.

The activity: Happening every Monday, volunteers are needed to cut, chop, cook, package and deliver ready-to-eat meals. No kitchen experience is required as there will be volunteer chefs on hand to tell you what to do. If you want to be a volunteer, please contact the volunteer coordinator at 98496491. The pop-up kitchen is located at New Fut Kai, 282 Jalan Besar, if you are scheduled to volunteer but cannot find the location, please call Tien at 9238-6609.
