THE Rice Bucket Challenge is in response to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and in line with World Food Day that falls on Oct 16.

Organised by The Lost Food Project (TLFP) and the Malaysian Red Crescent Society (MRCS), the challenge encourages the community to get together to fill up a bucket (or basket) with rice or essential food/non-food items at The Food Purveyor stores — Village Grocer and Ben’s Independent Grocer — and donate it to those in need from Oct 12 to Nov 12.
