Ration day: Distribution of cash aid to FINs

This morning, six Vincentians helped to distribute cash aid to about 12 FINs; these FINs do not have bank accounts. The rest of the FINs would have received their cash aid via bank transfer. Since the start of the circuit breaker, we have been gradually verifying and implementing bank transfer of the monthly aid to FINs.

The food donations from the food bank have been delayed as they did not receive enough donations.

Donation of Milk Powder

We received the donation of some milk powder and distributed them to our FINs with young children. 

Helping with a prayer at a funeral

This evening, we attended the funeral wake of a Friend-In-Need, who's father passed away in a short period of time after being diagnosed with a critical illness. We were fortunate to be able to borrow some books for the nightly prayer and prayed together with the family. 

Donation of chocolates by The Cocoa Trees

This afternoon, we collected 68 boxes of chocolate that was donated by The Cocoa Trees. Our Vincentian, Bro. Joseph Fernandez helped distribute them to our FINs. 

Thank you Esther of The Cocoa Trees! (https://www.thecocoatrees.com/)

Helping at the SSVP Shop

Today, Vincentians from Church of the Risen Christ helped volunteer at the SSVP Shop @ 501 Geylang Road; the different conferences take turn to do so. It was a good experience seeing regular shoppers start to trickle back. However, as the takings are still very much lower than pre-Covid-19 period, we all have to work harder to help SSVP raise more funds.
