A team of 20 students collected surplus fresh bread from bread stores all across Hong Kong during the event organized by Feeding Hong Kong. 

The bread was delivered to charities early the next morning, including shelters for the homeless, migrant workers and women's refuges, senior day centers, refugee and new immigrant support centers, children's homes, and other nonprofit programs that provide food for the hungry.

Volunteers are counting how much bread they have collected!
