HKUST SL Day Bread Run 惜食•麵包收集活動
During the HKUST SL Day Bread Run, volunteers helped pick up surplus bread from bakeries which were then delivered to Feeding Hong Kong. The whole Hong Kong wide Bread Run collected 1200 pieces of bread from more than 50 stores in Hong Kong. The collected bread was redistributed by partnering NGOs to individuals and families in need.

第一次參加Bread Run, 純粹因為自己是環保主意者，拒絕一切浪費。希望通過實際的行動，自身的力量為香港的環保事業出一分力。如果每天剩下的麵包都不用被扔到堆填區，那地球一定會感到很受關愛。因為人類懂得善用資源，不隨便浪費。由此而想，倘若不單麵包，其他食物、用品、衣服都能得到這樣的收集，然後對有需要的群體進行再分配的話，我們會變得更加富足，無論是物，還是精神。

It was a meaningful day as I collected more than 20 pieces of bread form the Maxim Cake Store at Tseung Kwan O MTR Station. If I had not collected the bread, they would have all gone to the landfill. This would be such a waste of resources. Luckily today, will all volunteers’ effort, less food is wasted. Although this may not be helping much, it is an appreciative act. Hopefully the scale of this act can be enlarged and sustained saving the environment and helping more people in need.
