This collaborative project between AIA Thailand, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA), and Bang Rak district aims to distribute non-perishable food and essential items to vulnerable groups. Donations are collected via the Goodie Foodie Truck, stationed at AIA’s Head Office in Bang Rak. The initiative seeks to address social inequality and reduce food waste, which contributes to global greenhouse gas emissions, reinforcing AIA’s global leadership in ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) practices. Central to this effort is the “AIA x BKK Food Bank,” part of the AIA One Billion mission, which aspires to help over one billion people across Asia-Pacific Live Healthier, Longer, and Better Lives.
Throughout the year, AIA Thailand has launched several awareness campaigns addressing food surplus issues and supporting underprivileged communities by improving access to basic necessities. These campaigns include “AIA Food Fighters” – encouraging employees to share excess food with colleagues and “Yellow Label I Love” – a campaign in collaboration with over 20 leading restaurants and brands, offering delicious “yellow label” items at great value, making it easy for everyone to contribute to environmental sustainability. These efforts reflect AIA’s dedication to building a more inclusive and liveable society for all.
