摘要：The implementation of the Food Bank Siswa program is one of the strategies to eliminate hunger and food insecurity. This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of the Food Bank Siswa program that has been implemented in Malaysia’s public higher institutions and to ascertain the impact of the Food Bank Siswa program among B40 students in UTeM. A cluster sampling was used. The data from 52 respondents were obtained through online survey questionnaires and analyzed using SPSS software. The results indicated that the Food Bank Siswa program had the most prominent impact on food insecurity since most of the B40 students in UTeM were more satisfied with the role of the program in preventing food insufficiency. This study perhaps could help in spreading public awareness about this program among Malaysian citizens. Consequently, the government will become more proactive in strengthening the operation of the Food Bank Program in order to be more systematic. Finally, the Food Banks Siswa program have the potential to be implemented and expanded to all public and private universities in Malaysia as it provides useful insight that impact student’s food security in supporting the government programs and plans; National Key Results Areas (NKRA) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
