With A Full Plate, every person in Singapore are invited to join this donation drive to ensure the local communities have the nutrition necessary to live healthier, more meaningful lives.
Running from now till 17th November 2024, A Full Plate encourages everyone to make a difference by donating at FairPrice Super, Finest, Xtra, Xpress, Cheers, Unity pharmacies, Kopitiam, and Cantine outlets. FairPrice Foundation will match all contributions up to S$1 million.
