Скачать или смотреть 2021 Community Collaboration Finalist - COVID Care Kits

Covid Care Kits was a partnership between Crouch Neighbourhood Resource Centre (Crouch), Glen Cairn Community Resource Centre (Glen Cairn) and Youth For Christ London (YFC). The collaboration was a response to immediate concerns about food security for low-income and/or immunocompromised residents in the early stage of the pandemic. In March 2020, Crouch lost access to all of its operating space and approached Glen Carin for support to sustain their emergency food services in the Hamilton Road Neighbourhood. Glen Cairn immediately offered use of their community kitchen and warehouse, allowing the first 45 Covid Care Kits to be delivered to low income residents who would normally access the Emergency Food Cupboard at the Crouch Library. As basic needs services across the city shut down and requests for basic needs support continued to rise, the operation outgrew Glen Cairn's space and YFC offered the use of their gym for food sorting as well as assistance with wholesale food procurement. At the height of the first wave, Crouch, Glen Cairn and YFC worked together to deliver food, hygiene items and educational materials to more than 700 low-income and immunocompromised residents in the Hamilton Road and Pond MIlls neighbourhoods on a weekly basis.
