About us
The Food Bank Singapore (FBSG) is the brainchild of brother-sister duo Nichol and Nicholas Ng, who own the X-Inc group of companies. After observing the food industry for more than a decade - the increasing food prices and food wastage - they realised the need for a food bank in Singapore. FBSG was established as Singapore’s first food bank with the aim of being the prevailing centralised coordinating organisation for all food donations in Singapore. FBSG bridges potential donors and member beneficiaries by collecting and redistributing donated food. Its members are registered charities or special organisations with a designated meal programme for low income and underprivileged individuals and families. Through a network of more than 370 such organisations of all sizes, we serve more than 100,000 families and over 300,000 people with all kinds of food. Driven by its mission to eradicate food insecurity of all forms in Singapore, FBSG stays in tune with the needs of its beneficiaries and has created unique food related programmes such as: · The Food Pantry 2.0 - an innovative food dispensing vending machine for our beneficiaries. · Food Bank Cards - a monthly top up card that allows beneficiaries the freedom of choice to select food based on their preferences. · Food Bank Central Kitchen - first charity kitchen that uses R&D and Technology to re-invent quality and nutritious meals. · Virtual Foodbanking - an app that helps to streamline the donation process for all types of foods, by matching donor companies with beneficiary organisations. · Bank Boxes - donation boxes deployed around the island to encourage citizens to donate their excess non-perishable food. · The Hunger Report - an annual study to explore the prevalence, causes and consequences of food insecurity in Singapore. FBSG was accorded charity status in August 2012 (Co. Reg No: 201200654E) and IPC status in May 2015. It is a registered member of The Global Foodbanking Network.

Over the past 5 enriching sessions, our Juniors Club has brought together 80 amazing Junior Foodbankers to learn about food insecurity and the power of giving back. These budding philanthropists didn’t just learn—they acted, distributing 200 food bundles to families in need, spreading hope and smiles across the community. We are incredibly inspired by the energy, compassion, and commitment shown by the next generation in supporting our mission to end food insecurity. Your actions today pave the way for a brighter, hunger-free tomorrow! A big THANK YOU to all the juniors, their families, and everyone who made this journey possible. Together, we’re proving that no one is too young to make a difference. Write into enquiries@foodbank.sg to find out more!

The Food Bank Singapore (FBSG) Faces of Resilience highlights inspiring stories of individuals and families who display incredible strength in the face of adversity. Through these heartfelt accounts, we aim to show the tangible impact of your contributions and the lives you help uplift. In a cramped two-room rental flat, Mr. and Mrs. Tan are raising their five young children, including one with special needs. Mr. Tan’s part-time job as a delivery driver brings irregular income, while Mrs. Tan stays home to care for the children and manages the household on a tight budget. The family’s small living space often leads to illnesses, and Mrs. Tan is stretched thin trying to meet everyone’s needs. The food bundles from The Food Bank Singapore provide relief and reassurance, helping the Tan's get through each day despite their many challenges. Each delivery is a reminder that there is a community standing with them in their journey. You can make a difference in the lives of families. Visit https://foodbank.sg to learn how you can help. Together, we can provide nourishment and hope for those in need. *Note: These stories are based on interviews with social workers from FBSG’s feeding partners.

Through these heartfelt accounts, we aim to show the tangible impact of your contributions and the lives you help uplift. Mdm Ng, in her seventies, is a retired sole breadwinner who still works part-time as a cleaner to make ends meet. She lives in a one-room rental flat with her son, who struggles with mental health issues. Her days are spent balancing work, household chores, and caregiving, with little time left for herself. #FoodbankSingapore #FBSG #GFN #GlobalFeedingNetwork #endhunger #foodrelief #foodbank #singapore #charity #nonprofit #ngo #association #activism #awareness #advocacy #dogood #impact #sustainability #socialgood #donate #fundraising #giveback #givingback #volunteer #makeadifference Her income barely covers essentials, and emergencies always feel just around the corner. The Food Bank Singapore’s food bundles have become a source of stability, easing her financial strain and providing some relief. When volunteers visit with supplies, they also bring warmth and connection—a small but powerful reminder to Mdm Ng that she is not alone in her struggles.
