11 Feb Groceries-For-Families: Herbalife (8 Feb 2019)
A record number of volunteers (36!) turned up for the grocery packing session on 8th February!
Packing groceries for 228 families already wasn’t easy; packing 228 grocery bags in a room filled with 40 adults made this an even sweeter achievement! Despite some inevitable chaos, the energy and enthusiasm of the volunteers shone through, and they also displayed their meticulous side when they reorganized how the grocery bags were lined up in double-quick time to confirm that there was no mistake in the packing. Simply well done! 👏👏
Thank you once again, Herbalife, for your invaluable help! Special thanks goes out to Ms. Rachel Koh for liaising with all 36 volunteers. 👍👍 We look forward to having Herbalife members with us again for future packing sessions. 😊😊
