Excuse Me, Are You Hungry? Where to find free meals in Singapore
Excuse Me, Are You Hungry? is a small book with one simple promise:
In Singapore, you should never have to face hunger alone.
Jobs can be lost. Health can fail. Savings can run out. Even in a rich city, some nights end with an empty stomach and a heavy heart. Many people suffer quietly because they feel ashamed to ask for help, or they simply do not know where to go.
This guide is for those moments.
Written in clear, simple language, this book gathers the places and programmes in Singapore where you can:
- Get a free or sponsored meal
- Receive home-delivered food if you are elderly or homebound
- Find surplus food through rescue and sharing networks
- Approach temples, churches and gurdwaras that serve the community
- Tap on pay-it-forward meals at hawker stalls and coffeeshops
- Reach official help when things feel overwhelming
Organised into easy-to-use chapters, each listing shares:

If you are hungry, this book gives you options and a next step.
If you know someone who is struggling, this book helps you point them to real, practical help.
If you want to give back, this book shows you where your kindness can reach the people who need it most.
Excuse Me, Are You Hungry? is not just a directory.
It is a quiet message to every reader:
You are not alone. There is food. There is help.
And there are many people in this little red dot who care.
