Feeding Singapore
The objective of the NuLife Feeding Singapore Project is to assist our beneficiaries with supermarket vouchers and food rations so that we help ease the financial burden of families with children and the elderly and ensure that their nutritional needs are met.
Once a client is assessed to be in need of such support and assistance, NuLife makes the necessary arrangements, which may include delivering the rations if the recipient has a physical disability. Families with young children or infants receive their supply of milk formula and diapers, which often pose a huge drain on the family finances.
The food rations and vouchers are donated by our well-wishers on an ad-hoc basis. Attempting to pay-it-forward, some donors choose to commemorate joyous events or special anniversaries.
As our current distribution networks are based on the availability of our volunteers and happens on an ad hoc basis, we are only able to accept non-perishable food items.
