Adventist Community Services

Many places would have donors coming with food packages but to have regular volunteers with a systematic program to check the health level of the families and also helping them to eat healthily, that is quite a unique part of PIF+. Our residents are ageing and many of them are ageing alone. So having someone to call on them regularly, just to check that they are taking their medication properly, that they are looking after themselves, that is a very important part that the community can play. Having some help on the ground, who knows the local families well — and these are regular faces that they see — this gives a lot of reassurance to the families.
