As we review 2016 Community operations, some confessions arise: Knowing is not enough, we must do. Sometimes good things fall apart, so better things can fall together. All in all the vision to add value to marginalised families has kept us learning whatever we can to go further.
David 33, of Kampong Muhibbah is disenfranchised from a transport company over new policies. His wife Satanam suffers spinal injury and cares for 2 pre-teen daughters and month old baby Jason. Though Shelter hired him temporarily, he needs a long-term job as chauffer or transport ranger.
As Community reach out with food parcels to 34 homes monthly, it faces a web of poverty, malnourished children and disintegrated families. The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little.
