Caring For and Serving the Needy

“Before getting help from Christian Action, I felt like I was constantly fighting a losing battle to make ends meet. My husband is a casual worker in the construction industry and his monthly income dropped to HK$10,000 due to the pandemic. We live in a 100 square foot subdivided unit, because that’s all we can afford. To save money, I would go to the wet market just before closing time to look for bargains and cheaper vegetables and take our two kids to the park to cool off, rather than turn on the air-conditioner at home.

It was such a relief when my relative introduced me to CA’s Mong Kok Service Centre. Now we receive a supply of essentials, including rice, milk, eggs and more each month. The balanced diet helps my children to grow up healthily and the money saved, is used to buy daily necessities. Without CA’s support, I don't think I could provide for my family and care for the elderly. Thank you so much.”
Ms. Lam (pseudonym name) shared her story.

Every time I hear our beneficiaries like Ms. Lam, share their stories, I feel sad that they have had to go through such hardships. At the same time, I feel so happy that we are able to make a difference - and that is because of your support!

This week I am asking for support once more. Please show your love and donate these consumption vouchers to Christian Action, so we can convert them into help for more people like Mrs. Lam. The first-installment voucher of HK$3,000, will be usable on April 16th, and the second-installment voucher of HK$2,000 in July 2023.

Thank you!
