SOME 500 families in Bandar Tun Razak, Kuala Lumpur, will be receiving weekly provisions of fresh, nutritious food through Think City’s Bakul K2K platform, thanks to a RM500,000 allocation from Margma Foundation.

The foundation, which runs corporate social responsibility programmes for Malaysian Rubber Glove Manufacturers Association (Margma), initiated a “Healthy Food, Better Learning” campaign after receiving numerous reports on poor health and nutrition among public housing communities.
