Reaching out to wherever help is needed.
Our outreach includes special projects and activities for the elderly, vulnerable individuals and families as well as migrant workers among others.
SSVP organises:
- family and community activities; to help ease the pressures within families and communities and manage isolation for those who are lonely and marginalised with organised activities and excursions
- visits to homes for the aged and sick
- home improvement projects; appliance replacements, changing beddings and mattresses, installing LED lights
- visits to migrant worker dormitories to provide them with care pack containing groceries and essentials
- special visits to vulnerable groups, including single-parent families, elderly to provide them with friendship and care packs containing groceries and essentials
- training, workshops and information; to help with the management of their daily lives, eg, information to enhance financial literacy, better parenting, care-taking, training to better their employment potential etc.
These special projects are often organise in collaboration with the parish, other community groups or corporations.
“I decided to be baptised in the Catholic church, as I was introduced into the faith by the SSVP members, and started attending the catechism class. The SSVP volunteers are always so friendly, encouraging and helpful to me, that I want to get to know the faith more.”
“My life seems to be brighter now and I would like to express much gratitude to SSVP,”
