Kechara Soup Kitchen has recently begun operations in our new permanent building, and would like to expand our services to reach out to more homeless people than ever before. However, we need your help to fulfil our building’s full potential. Aside from funds for maintenance and our daily operations, we also have our wish list.
Make a difference today and change someone’s life.
If there is anything below that you can help us to fulfill, please contact our Project Director Chua Siong Woan (+6010 3333 260).
On behalf of everyone on the streets, Kechara Soup Kitchen thanks you for your support.
Help us with our wishlist for the new soup kitchen building!

I would like to donate a clothes dryer (Zanussi 5 kg). Can I drop it over on any Sundays?
Hi Michelle, thank you for the kind donation. Can you please contact the team at Kechara Soup Kitchen for further information on how you can go about making a donation?

Thank you,

Our community forum will be conducting a collection drive for contribution. Is it better to give cash or items?
Hi Kris, what a kind thought, thank you! Both will be much appreciated by the clients. The cash will be used to buy the items for our clients and if donations are in kind, then medicines, clothes (particularly male clothes) and blankets will be very useful. Best would be to contact KSK to find out if there’s anything specific that their clients are looking for.
Do you accept second-hand clothings?
Hi Kecharians, in respond to the wonderful idea of Dato Ruby to feed the stray animals when donating food to the homeless on the street, I would like to buy some dog and cat food for feeding the stray animals. Can you please let me know where I can drop it off? I may also have some unused tee shirts for the homeless too. I hope I can have more sponsors dog food in the future for feeding the strays. How wonderful. Thank you Kecharians.
How do we make donations? Do we just drop donations off at Kechara Soup Kitchen? I really want to help, let me know what I can do
