A Pit Stop For All

The Pit Stop Community Cafe is a social enterprise working towards solutions for homelessness, urban poverty, and hunger, among others, in our capital city. Since 2016, they’ve been providing both hot meals and job training for people from the homeless and urban poor communities in KL, but like many social enterprises and soup kitchens, the past 15 months have not been easy for them. Yet, they have been soldiering on to continue the work that they do, and to find out more about that and how people can lend a helping hand, we speak to the co-founders of Pit Stop Community Cafe, Joycelyn Lee and Andrea Tan.
