28 OCT 2021 - 282 MEALS

Menu: Bamboo shoots curry chicken; chicken and tuna porridge

Meals served: 282

A big day today as we packed 2 kinds of meals for the needy. Thank you to our volunteers!

Long queues building up at our premises these days. We are seeing more families and children show up too. We had started out targeting to serve 150 meals daily, but we are seeing the need to provide more meals as the crowds are non stop. Therefore, we will need to increase our fundraising efforts to continue this work. Please help us by donating here.

We also sent meals to the local Burmese camps. There are many children located with these Burmese families who were mostly in Phuket working in construction or cleaning. Currently, these jobs have been put on hold or given back to Thais due to the Go Local focus. We hope we provide some relief with our hot meals.

27 Oct 2021 - 250 MEALS

Menu: Noodles with chicken soup

Meals served: 250

Today, we served 250 meals of beehoon and chicken soup.

Meals were also delivered to nearby sois. Separately, Aland and Sunee have also given out much needed baby supplies to nearby needy families. Nappies and milk feed is very expensive and in current economic climate, many are suffering. Should we wish to donate items, please contact hotmealsphuket@icloud.com

26 OCT 2021 - 302 MEALS; ANOTHER RECORD; NEW GOALS FOR 2022 for 20,000 MEAL TARGET

Menu: Stew chicken, boiled eggs and rice

Meals served: 302

Whilst its great to know we are packing more meals each day, it is also very distressing to see that more people are coming to take the food packs. We finish our distribution within 20 minutes daily. Will the food queues ease up?

We now firmly believe that we will have to scale up our food program and goals of serving hot meals until next year. So the target is to provide 20,000 hot meals until March 2022. We are updating our donation link and will go to the public seeking help with financing. Should you wish to donate, please click here.

We would also love to work with corporate donors, small businesses. Happy for companies to sponsor meals or volunteer in other ways, time or give us produce/ staples. We are open to working with all that wish to contribute to our local needy. Please email us at hotmealsphuket@icloud.com.
