FOOD GIFT+ AND ASSIST PRO
Our enhanced monthly food gift programme is designed to assist vulnerable families, with the flexibility of catering to their needs. Duration of assistance is assessed on a case-by-case basis. There has been a constant increase in the need for this assistance over the years.
With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Loving Heart (Jurong) has also reached out to provide one-off support for Families under Home Recovery Scheme.
To assist families with young children and elderly members, we launched the Assist Pro programme consisting of formula milk powder, baby diapers, and/or adult diapers.

Vegetable Scheme with Jurong Spring
A collaboration between Jurong Spring Citizens’ Consultative Committee and Loving Heart Multi-Service Centre (Jurong), we have worked with Jurong Spring FoodCare to provide fresh fruits to more than 140 recipients under their care since February 2020.
On a bimonthly basis, recipients received vouchers worth $6 each and are able to redeem fruits through an appointed vendor. Through this, we also hope to increase nutritional values of food assistance with fresh food.
Going forward, we are moving into a vegetable distribution scheme. With the new scheme, residents will be able to receive fresh vegetables together with their FoodCare packs. Together with Jurong Spring Citiztens’ Consultative Committee, we aim to roll out the new scheme in the second quarter of the year.
