PROJECT K.AN

What is Project K.an?
Project K.an, Kampong Chai Chee CC YEC's flagship event. Started in 2014, the project's objective is to seek public donation on can food for the low-income and the needy families around the Kampong Chai Chee constituency and the East Coast GRC.

But why can food?
Firstly, can food has a very long shelf life. The can food donated to the families is not supposed to replace their daily meals but is more of a form of support in the case of tough times (E.g low on financial support).
