"Since the pandemic began, we run similar processes every day: family surveys, packaging, delivery, and ensuring the families receive supplies. Although being exhausted, I am still happy when thinking of those being helped."
"Volunteers are still packing supplies." It is already 8-9 pm, we got a message from our Indian working partner.
Hoping to deliver the supplies to the families in need as soon as possible, all the volunteers continue packaging day and night.
Since April, the Mustard Seed Mission launched rescue plans in India and the Philippines, providing food parcels and anti-epidemic kits to the vulnerable families.
In order to obtain enough food, masks, soaps and other supplies during the lockdown, our local working partners in various fields have mobilized all their social network: community leaders, grocery store owners or wholesalers.
During the delivery, mask is their only protection, our working partners step into communities fearlessly, trying their best to understand the life challenges and urgent needs of vulnerable families, daily-wager families and migrant worker families.
After several months of combating the epidemic, the Mustard Seed Mission has overcome the limitations of time, space, and language, and continued to encourage each other through various measures, and discuss the works with local partners. As a witness of exhaustion and helplessness of working partners after the rescue, I also see their strength and resilience.
For those vulnerable people striving for survival, you are invited to accompany them in this COVID-19 battlefield!
