While they can’t afford them, they’re extremely useful for long-distance calls with their families, listening to music, and watching online videos.

Join ItsRainingRaincoats’ Christmas initiative

With the holiday season soon upon us, ItsRainingRaincoats has launched its Christmas initiative for the fourth consecutive year. Their ‘We Have A Dream’ campaign hopes to gift 750,000 migrant workers in Singapore with a token of appreciation from 10 Dec 2021 to 10 Jan 2022.

To participate, interested Singaporeans can do the following:

  • Drop off gift-wrapped presents at designated drop-off points.
  • Provide festive treats by sponsoring meals, sweets, chocolates, or care packs.
  • Help deliver gifts to workers
  • Donate funds for essentials (meals, groceries, utility items) to ItsRainingRaincoats

Apart from Bluetooth headsets, other gift ideas include power banks, Tiger Balm, umbrellas, raincoats and backpacks.

You can head to their website for more details on how to join and participate.

Kudos to generous residents

Migrant workers are key to Singapore’s growth and development.

During the season of giving, they too deserve a small token of appreciation for their hard work.

Kudos to the generous residents for their Christmas gifts. Hopefully, more generous Singaporeans will step up and donate as the holiday season draws near.
