The primary objective of the campaign was to encourage people to participate in this generous activity, and the response from the community was overwhelming, as they came out in large numbers to add sweetness to the lives of those less fortunate, it said.
Robin Hood Army is a volunteer-based, zero funds organisation that works to get surplus food from restaurants and the community to serve less fortunate people, the statement said.
