Dear beloved readers, Thank you all for taking the time off
to visit our blog and read our content. Over the past week, this blog has seen
a significant increase of readership in our content. Thus, beside smiling
gleefully with the needy for a picture whenever a camera is place in front of
us, we have decided to make use of this wide readership to be an avenue for
the less fortunate in Singapore. Whether it is a financial or health need, our
team of 5 can only bring happiness to a handful of people who are desperate
need of help. However, what our team CAN do is to bring about the awareness of
those who have been forgotten and neglected so that whoever needs our call for
help may want to step out of their comfort zone with us and aid those in
trouble.
HELP
FOR THE HOMELESS
Project 4650 was a project held by the multiple agencies in 2010 to help resettle the homeless. To date, over 300 families have benefited from this project which included Mr mohd azezy mohd ayub, who was living in a van with his family of 7 in a park. He now lives in a 3 room flat in bedok, with help from the multi agencies involved through this project.
Despite these efforts from both government and non-profit government organizations like touch community services, their area of coverage is unable to reach out to all those who are in need. There are still homeless people living around in parks, beaches and void decks. Thus, it is imperative that we make an effort to reach out and help our fellow singaporeans who require assistance in having a roof over their heads and a meal at the table.
How can you help?
Not sure of how someone like you can help the needy? Here are 2 ways that you can!1. Make a donation
Non-profit organizations such as the salvation army, touch community services and many more are willing to accept any amount no matter how small. Below is a list of some of the non profit organizations that you can contact to provide financial aid to the less fortunate today:2. Food packages
Even though these people already have a roof over their head, donating food hampers to these still go a long way for them! If you have the time, feel free to drop by these three mcys sanctioned homeless shelters with your food packages:
