The Student Association of the Faculty of Chemical Engineering & Technology (FKTK), Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), successfully carried out the MySaveFood Programme at Bazar Ramadan Arau in collaboration with SWCorp Negeri Perlis, Majlis Perbandaran Kangar, and Angkatan Pertahanan Awam Malaysia Negeri Perlis.
Through this initiative, surplus food and beverages that were still safe and suitable for consumption were identified and collected for redistribution to those in need. A total of 129.2kg of surplus items were successfully rescued during the programme, comprising 30.5kg of food and 98.7kg of beverages.
All collected items were distributed to students at Tan Sri Aishah Ghani Residential College, Wang Ulu, UniMAP, ensuring that the surplus reached beneficiaries within the university community.
Beyond food redistribution, the programme also raised awareness among bazaar traders and visitors on the importance of reducing food waste and embracing responsible consumption practices, particularly during the Ramadan season.
This initiative reflects FKTK’s continuous commitment to sustainability, community engagement, and environmental responsibility, in line with the faculty’s aspiration to cultivate socially conscious and environmentally responsible graduates.
