FAQs

1.  Where can I drop-off my donations-in-kind?

We currently have only one drop-off location in Singapore (we hope to have many more in future!).

*SCAPE YOUTH PARK (Opposite Cineleisure Orchard)
113 Somerset Road
There are two bins, both are located outside the building on the ground floor.

Here’s a link to a map! (Just in case you’re still unsure)

2.  How can we provide a drop-off location?

If you’re a company/organisation/store/school, etc that’s willing to serve as a drop-off point for members of the public please contact us!

So, what’s in it for you?  Well, you help contribute to an amazing cause by reducing waste and passing items of much need onto people who need them the most.  On top of that, by making the commitment you will gain free-publicity by being featured on our website.

Anything we’ve listed on our, Wishlist.

From time to time, we also send out requests for particular items via our Facebook, Twitter and Update pages.

4. Can we arrange for someone from ‘Blessings in a Bag’ to pick up donations?

We regret to say that we are unable to do so as it will only result in more people wanting to request for the same treatment.
