Join Us in Supporting the St Jeanne Antide Foundation's May Food Drive
The St Jean Antide Foundation (SJAF) is a non-profit organisation dedicated to supporting vulnerable and poor families through a holistic approach. Their activities include community social work, where social workers assist individuals and families in problem-solving, relationship building, and accessing resources. They also engage in street outreach to extend support to hard-to-reach families. The foundation operates a family services hub, Ċentru Antida, offering a range of support services such as home-visits, advocacy, and emotional support. Additionally, they provide specialised services like SOAR for survivors of domestic violence and LWIEN for family caregivers of persons with severe mental health issues.
To support the foundation, one can volunteer in various roles, whether it's befriending, mentoring, learning support, or handyman tasks. Donations are also welcomed and can be made through the BOV Pay app to the number provided on their website. For those interested in contributing to the foundation's mission, contacting them via the email provided on their website is a great first step. The charity shop in Tarxien, adjacent to Ċentru Antida, serves as a fundraising mechanism and provides in-kind support to families in financial hardship, where individuals can donate or purchase items.
The St Jeanne Antide Foundation's May Food Drive is a significant event that supports vulnerable and poor families by providing essential food supplies. Participating in this food drive is a powerful way to contribute to the community, as every donation helps to alleviate hunger and offers hope to those in need. The foundation's commitment to holistic support means that contributions go beyond just food; they empower individuals and families to improve their lives. Joining the food drive is not only an act of charity but also a step towards fostering a stronger, more compassionate society. By participating, you become part of a collective effort to make a tangible difference in people's lives.
