Rations Needed for Refugee Community

There are many refugee families living around KL who struggle to feed their families. Many of them are unable to find work or hardly earn enough to cover their transportation. Some have lost their sole bread winners to illness while there are women whose husbands have been detained.

We've started a Food Ration project whereby those who are in real need "register" with their local community leaders and we distribute basic food supplies like rice, oil, non-perishables, toiletries, etc on a weekly or monthly basis.

We need your support to contribute either in cash or kind to help these families. Some of the items they need on regular basis are:

rice, cooking oil, sugar, salt, canned food like beans, sardines, jam, bread, noodles, biscuits, soap, toothpaste, detergent, sanitary napkins, diapers, etc

Please contact me if you'd like to contribute towards this project. We will post photos of the contributions given out. We welcome those who'd like to donate the food themselves.

Thanks so much for your support!
