Since started in 2021, our Rice Fund charity initiative continues to go from strength to strength. Still 100% powered by donations and volunteers, we’ve been able to deliver thousands of Asian food products for emergency food hampers and community pantries for those doing it tough, including many Asian-Australians. These include:
- 900 bags of rice
- 1,700 packets of noodles
- 1,200 cans of tinned goods
- 300 bottles of oil/seasoning
- 400 boxes of tea
We have to acknowledge and thank the many donors, some of whom choose to remain anonymous, whose donations have allowed us to expand Rice Fund to its biggest year yet. Shout out to and for their generous donations this year. And for those groups and communities that have helped us raise funds like , , .
