Kampong Glam CNY Festive cheers Distribution (3 Feb 2024)

July 8, 2024

A week before Chinese New Year on 3 Feb 2024, CaringSG distributed CNY goodie bags to special needs caregivers and families. The event aimed to bring some festive joy and support to these caregivers during the Chinese New Year celebrations. It was also a way to appreciate and thank them for their dedication and efforts in their caregiving journey over the past year.

A total of 61 families benefitted from the event, which was supported by 23 CAREkakis from the Kampong Glam Constituency, 10 CaringSG staff and Board members, as well as 6 CAREchampions.

It was indeed a great joy and privilege to work with the grassroots and community to share the bliss and joy with these caregivers during this festive season!
