Activity 4: On line parent-child eye sight protection workshop
Experts communicate with migrant parents and their children to answer eyesight and prescription eyeglasses related questions.
Activity 5: Food delivery
The lockdown plunged many migrant students' families into a dire situation. Confined to their small apartments, the students' parents had little or no income without a job while prices for necessities such as food had increased significantly. Upon hearing about the food shortage problems, KidStrong responded immediately by organizing food drives.
