Yayasan Suria JB(YSJB) – Launching of YSJB’s 4th Food Bank Station(FBS).
It was a hot day at 3.00 pm on 5/3/2021, however some 30 volunteers from JASA(Johor Aid & Social Assistance), a coalition of 4 NGOs, namely YSJB, Ihsan Johor, Sooriya Udhayam & PKWJB came together at Restaurant Raveendran, Kulai to give away ‘goodies’ to 200 families, each costing RM150, a project costing RM30k.
All the 4 chiefs of JASA(Kumanan of Sooriya Udhayam, Farrah of Ihsan Johor, Lydia Goh of PKWJB & James Ho of YSJB) were personally there to ensure the smooth flow – turun padang lah.
On hand to help out were YB Raven himself, Special Officer to MB Johor and the Aqina Farm boys, donors of 200 special Aqina chicken which feed only on pipeapple. Our special thanks to Kumanan of Sooriya Udhayam for being the main organizer of this launch.
All 200 recepients plus some 30 volunteers, including YB Raven, were decon as part of our standard SOP, proper social distancing observed with masks worn at all times by all. All were hand sanitised before receiving the goods.
