Project Kyrie Partners Standard Chartered to Recycle Office Furniture for the Poor

We wish to thank Standard Chartered Bank for partnering us to support education for the poor in their donation of 3o training chairs and a sofa set.

Project Kyrie has allocated this donation for use at FMM House, where Philipino maids are trained in a variety of new skills to build up life giving opportunities when they return home after working in Singapore.

When furniture is recycled for the poor, the time and labour of man also lives on to serve and profit in the goodness of human kind.

God hath given to man a short time here upon earth, and yet uponthis short time eternity depends.

Our Message

We have a simple vision of creating a tidal wave of kindness from a ripple of effort given by busy individuals.

We are a network of friends standing in solidarity to provide support and assistance to the poor.

A little effort by each person can change the life of someone in need positively for a lifetime.

Our mission at Project Kyrie is to support humanitarian relief efforts of NGOs and individuals to make a small difference in the lives of others by facilitating funds and resources to organisations and persons of most need.

Who.We.Are

Project Kyrie

Believes that everyone can make a difference in the lives of others so long as we do whatever little we can. It may just be a quick phone call or an introduction amidst busy schedules.

We believe that there are many kind-hearted individuals who would like to help those less privileged but are too busy with their work and their families to be able to locate where the poor and needy are.

Our mission is to connect the givers to the beneficiaries. We hunt down worthy causes and projects to help the poor and the needy rise out of their difficult situations by enhancing their lives with resources and offering them opportunities to help themselves.

Leverage
We have a network of about 500 friends from all stations in life and of all race and religion. We present the needs of the poor to our network of like-minded friends. Our friends will then communicate these needs to their like-minded friends. We leverage on the strength of our personal and work contacts to help others in need.

In this way, our effort is multiplied exponentially to achieve good for those who have little with very little effort and time from us.

If everyone helps a little, we can achieve much for the poor and the powerless.

Apart from humanitarian aid, we strive to create opportunities for hardworking individuals to break from their cycle of poverty.

Our core objective is to teach people how to fish, through education and acquiring of new skills. We believe that poverty need not be the price, paid by a child. If he or she has the potential to become a contributing and productive member of society, we aim to give this child or individual, the opportunities and tools required to succeed.

When they do succeed, the whole family is helped. They will be pulled out of the vicious cycle of poverty in which they might have been in for generations.

Our Approach
Simple ABC approach to Project Kyrie's type of assistance philosophy :

A : Assisting with Humanitarian aid
B : Building a good foundation through education and skills training
C : Creating opportunities through jobs and small business schemes

Why Project Kyrie?
Project Kyrie literally means the Lord’s Project. We believe fearlessly that if it is His Will for a project to be done, it will be done.

ALL GLORY with no exceptions belong only to GOD our Father! \O/\O/\O/
