我們早前有幸跟隨夥伴社區關懷中心 (CCC) ，一起服侍街道的清潔工友。夏日太陽高掛，清潔工友在極端高溫下工作分外辛苦，不但擔心自己的健康，也關心自用的應對方案是否有效。 隨著酷熱日子越來越多，我們感恩能向100 多名清潔工人派發消暑物資。謝謝你們的辛勞，維持我們的城市清潔。 「好人好市」項目由 The Hong Kong Club Foundation Limited 贊助 捐贈物資： https://www.goodcity.hk/ 申領物資： https://lnkd.in/e7jPA49 We spent the day with our partner, Centre for Community Care (CCC) and these street cleaners. With little to no shade from the sun, they expressed concerns of the health impacts of extreme heat and shared how they currently cope. With summers getting longer each year, we are so grateful to be able to distribute heat relief items to over 100 cleaners. Thank you for all that you do for our community!

How would it feel to walk in broken shoes all day? For many the reality of homelessness brings with it both physical discomfort and a lack of dignity. “Many of our homeless clients ask us to receive shoes. However our shoe inventory was limited and we didn't have enough different sizes of shoes. After this donations, we could provide more shoes and choices for our homeless clients.” (Homedoor, Japan). Through Global Hand’s long-term partner, Soles4Souls , we were able to place a donation of brand-new, high-quality sports shoes with the NGO Homedoor in Osaka, Japan. This organisation provides help for homeless people to get out of poverty. 誰想整天踏著破鞋子？不但穿得不舒服，更顯得毫無尊嚴。 日本機構Homedoor分享道：「這裏很多街友向我們申領鞋子，但機構的庫存非常有限，也難以備有不同尺寸的鞋子。感恩收到你們的捐助，我們能為他們提供更多選擇。」 透過環球援手網絡的長期夥伴 Soles4Souls ，我們早前將一批簇新的優質運動鞋轉贈給大阪非政府組織Homedoor，讓他們服侍當地的無家者脫離貧窮的困境。 #CrossroadsFoundation #CrossroadsGlobalVillage #dignity #poverty #endpoverty

This is Linda from Germany, who oversees our clothing processing department. She processes donated clothes and manages volunteering groups from schools and corporates.
