Stock groceries at Store@Woodlands for those in need
Store@Woodlands is a new “minimart” facility opened in July 2021. It was initiated by PCF Woodlands, in collaboration with Woodlands CCC, to allow low income and vulnerable families in Woodlands to shop for free for food and other essential items.
Beneficiaries can choose up to 9 items a month and can visit the store as many times a month as they like. The store is stocked with items like rice, bee hoon, instant noodles, canned foods, biscuits, cooking oil, condiments, toiletries and toilet rolls.
All “purchases” are made with their store membership cards through a bar code scanning system that allows the team to perform analytics to understand what the beneficiaries like.
Store@Woodlands provides beneficiaries the dignity of choice as well a wider range of items including healthier options and the occasional indulgences like chocolates and tidbits. Store@Woodlands also helps to reduce food wastage as beneficiaries pick up only what they want.
Beneficiaries of Store@Woodlands love the ability to choose and say they much prefer it to pre-packed food rations.
All donations to this campaign will be for stocking groceries at Store@Woodlands. Every bit helps!
