Among the most vulnerable communities, it is often challenging to access needed aid. Many of these families are from other cities, without identification, do not have stable monthly jobs with benefits, and are often excluded in the data that receives government support. In June 2020, Compassion First served over 450 vulnerable families living in and around two cemetery communities with food relief packages helping supply their basic needs. Community members were grateful for the support and care, as finding work and providing their basic daily necessities has been extremely challenging this year with COVID-19 and city-wide stay at home orders. Our second distribution happened in December of 2020, where we served another 500 families in the East Java Cemetery community.
We plan to serve the second cemetery community with 120 families in early 2021 after the next stay at home order is lifted. Thank you for your love and support for our East Java community.
