Make Your Christmas 'Others-centred'


Our annual #AllIWantForChristmas campaign (AIWFC) is about making Christmas others-centred and not me or we-centred. The campaign focuses on raising awareness about the practical household needs of low-income families, homebound seniors and other individuals.


Help raise awareness about the practical household needs of low-income families and seniors. Support us as we continue to provide year-round assistance and CARE for the community.
