觀塘派送物資給長者

This program is made possible by the UPS Foundation Description: With 1 in 3 elderly in Hong Kong living below the poverty line and more than half enduring feelings of loneliness, the demand for support has reached a critical level. Part of the burden on these individuals and families can be eased through the delivery of food packages and essential supplies brought directly to their doorsteps by caring volunteers. Volunteers are needed to help assemble and deliver these Care Packages to elderly in Kwun Tong - helping to provide food assistance that recipients know can be counted on for that month. These packages are being allocated to households identified as being in need of long-term food assistance and support. Volunteer roles: Volunteers will receive a short briefing upon arriving at the community centre. Volunteers will collect and pack the grocery items and other necessities from a local elderly centre. In pairs, volunteers will then deliver care packages to households, spending around 20 mins in conversation with each elderly individual. By doing so, you’ll help to provide both social and emotional support – and above all, show them that somebody cares. Volunteers may need to pay for their transportation fee to deliver care packages to the elderly in other housing estates in Kwun Tong (around 2-4 bus stops or MTR stations away). Special note: The 27 July 2024 & 24 August 2024 sessions will be changed to "shopping with the elderly". Volunteers will accompany the elderly to go shopping at the supermarket. Please kindly note the meeting time and gathering location are the same. 活動簡介：超過20％的人口生活在貧困中，每月靠少於4,000港元生存，他們甚至在疫情之前都在努力維持生計。 現在，由於他們許多人生活在恐懼中並且生計受到影響，這些人比以往任何時候都更加迫切需要幫忙。 弱勢群體以及支持他們的慈善機構需要廣大香港公眾的支持。他們生活中食物的負擔，可以通過由義工遞交到他們手上的食品包來減輕。 需要義工來幫助一班居住在觀塘長者，服務內容包括包裝和交付這些食物包。我們希望每月提供食品援助給予長期需要食物援助和支持的家庭。 義工角色： 每位義工抵達中心之時，中心工作人員將會提供指引。 義工將幫忙將遞送物資分裝入袋， 義工兩人一組送達物資至長者家門口。義工需要入屋與長者閒聊了解他們的近況，大約二十分鐘一戶。 義工或需自費交通費用，派發福袋給住在其他觀塘屋邨的長者(大約兩至四個巴士站或港鐵站的距離)。 特別更改：2024年7月27日及2024年8月24日的義工活動將改為「與長者一起購物」，義工將會陪同長者到超市購物。請注意集合時間和集合地點相同。
