IOU Update for Community Givers
Many kind friends have contacted me to ask how they can donate to the LoveConnect Hub at Jalan Besar Community Centre - remember the Hub and its food vending machines, clothes and books to bless residents in need?
My team and I have conducted a poll and asked our beneficiaries what they would need.
Here’re their modest requests :
Cooking oil
Rice
Vegetables
Fruits
Eggs
Canned food (Mushroom soup etc )
Milo packets
Shampoo
Toothpaste
Toothbrush
Soap power
Detergent for dishwashing
Reading Books for children
You get it - this group of residents asked for mainly modest essential household items. This does not mean they have no other desires. One man, for instance, asked for low-cost dental services for his wife who’s not a citizen.
If you want to give, do give things
that you would not mind receiving yourself ;
that are In good condition and not waiting to be disposed or cost money to dispose.
You can drop items off every Friday and Saturday from 12 noon to 9pm at
Jalan Besar Community Centre at Jellicoe Road
Outside LoveConnect Hub (some boxes)
There’s not enough manpower at the moment so do forgive the CC staff and volunteers if you don’t get “good service”. Thousand apologies!
I believe we are all blessed so we can bless others. So thank you for caring!
