DONATION IN KIND

Here are some of the goods that we would love to have, all year round:

1) Toiletries such as shampoo, shower gel, tooth brush, tooth paste. By distributing these bath amenities to our beneficiaries, we managed to reduce their cost of living. The beneficiaries under our care have an average capita income between $0-$200.

2) Clean toys that are in good working condition.

Hint: Over the years, we noticed that Board games like Scrabble, Monopoly and Lego are a huge hit with the children of all age group and genders.

3) Clear Wrappers. For our annual Toy Drive, we distribute an average of about 10,000 toys and for that we would require to have each toy nicely wrapped in clear wrappers before distributing them out to the underprivileged children. 

4) Non Perishable Food Items such as rice, oil and canned food. Please refer to the list of contents in our basic food goodie bag under the Food Goodie Bag Programme.

Hint: Team up your cash donation with fellow colleagues or family members and order in bulk from supermarket like NTUC Fairprice and have the goods deliver to our warehouse without much hassle.

5) Sweet Treats like chocolates, candies and sweets for our needy families in order to top up their monthly food supply. Also, these sweet treats are often used for our parties that Food from the Heart organise regularly.

6) Milk Powder for babies of the 1500 needy families under our care.

7) Drinks of all flavours. We are always of a constant need of drinks to be used at our events throughout the year.
