Hi, this is Kiyomi. I am in charge of SDGs activities at the Singapore branch.

From 17-28 February 2025, a total of 51 branch staff volunteered at Willing Hearts, a charity organisation that we have been supporting since 2023. Willing Hearts cooks and prepares approximately 7,000 meals every day, 365 days a year, for the elderly, people with disabilities, low-income families, single parents, children from poverty-stricken families, and migrant workers, and distributes meals to more than 70 communities across the country.

I would like to share with you about our volunteer work.

During the volunteer period, 5-6 people participated in the activities in the afternoon shifts.

 Packing bread

This time we cleaned many shelves and storerooms.

Tidy shelves after cleaning　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　So shiny!

We cleaned up together with the staff of United Overseas Bank (UOB), a major local bank. Everyone was smiling after the big job!

Preparing Achar (local pickles) & chopping ham.

Carrying heavy bags of rice and cleaning the kitchen.

Making Choco chip cakes to distribute to elderly people.

Looks delicious!

I’m grateful that everyone is happy to contribute even though it’s hard work. All of our staff will continue to contribute to society.
