4 Creative Ways To Support Local Food Bank
By Yavini Lucille · 19th July, 2021
Given the extended MCO enforcement, more and more Malaysians are getting hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Over the past weeks, there was a White Flag Movement or #benderaputih bringing ripples across social media in Malaysia, and yes, more distressed individuals and families have started waving white flags outside their houses as a sign to ask for help.
We know it's tough to help others during the coronavirus pandemic. Fortunately, there are some ways you can do right now without making you leave the house. And somehow, most of them won't cost you any money.
Ways That You Can Do To Support Local FoodBank
1. Make some noise on social media
Use a couple of the minutes you spend on social media today to grab support for this movement from your followers or customers. Share them using #BenderaPutih / #RakyatJagaRakyat, and get more of them to do the same.
GSC had shared a post to support small businesses or anyone in need to leave their comments. And it's getting 3.5k likes & almost 300 comments from the crowd!

2. Share a "food bank map"
Chances are, your local food bank will show what they need and where they are. Volunteer your time to prepare a food bank list around your place and share it out with your audience on your online store or social media. Believe me, it will definitely help out those in need.

3. Share out the movement with businesses
As the initiative began, more businesses pledge support for the white flag campaign, such as 99 Speedmart, Shell, Vit's (instant noodle manufacturer), and more. Meanwhile, we can help to spread it out to more friends and family by clicking the 'Share' button easily.
