SINGAPORE - Even as most workplaces and schools shut down islandwide from Tuesday , it will be business as usual for Mr Nizar Mohamed Shariff and his four staff members, who will proceed to do their daily home deliveries so that needy families will not go hungry.
Free Food For All is one of the handful of food charities here which will plough ahead to bring food to the tables of needy households here, amid the circuit breaker measures that will affect all non-essential services from Tuesday. Apart from hygiene kits, the charity gives out food items such as frozen meals, fruits and vegetables, dried rations, cooking oils and spices.
"As such, the service can still continue and seniors are able to receive their meals promptly on a daily basis," the agency added. Its chief executive, Ms Sim Bee Hia, noted that the charity has also been receiving dozens of appeals for food donations from individuals as well - something that is"not usually seen"."We're working out how to cater to them, because we hope that food is something that nobody has to worry about."
