“Food Parcel” project to support families in need already helps two families in need
We are proud to have launched a new initiative called the “Food Parcel” project, which has already supported two families in need, and aims to support many others. Whilst the primary focus is on providing food items, it also includes essential toiletries and cleaning products, thus making a significant difference to people’s lives.
Many of our students come from families who are struggling, and some are living in circumstances that are close to or below the poverty line. This project is an opportunity for us to extend our care and support to them during these difficult times.
Please see below our ‘wish list’ – we will confirm shortly where to drop these items off.
