Providing nutritious, free meals for B40 children

Tan says Kenyang uses surplus or rescued food from partners which would otherwise go to landfills.

A medical student almost dropping out of school was the inspiration for Tan Yuen Mun, then in the hospitality industry, to provide free meals for the underprivileged.

She said in 2019, when collaborating with Universiti Malaya’s Medical Faculty to serve food to students, she discovered that some were fasting or surviving on just one meal a day.
