Bring Christmas 2012 to People Suffering from Ultimate Poverty!

Dear frens,
Thank you for helping us feed the poor in Gujarat India last Christmas 2012.

Because many of you were there for them , many were fed. When I see the photos, I thank everyone who stepped forward from the bottom of my heart to make this food distribution possible.

Special thanks to Alina Sim, Heng Noi, Iris & Martinus, Susan Lee, Lena Tan,Mark Foo,Andrew, Debbie, Benel, Annie Tan.

God Bless,

Dear Frens,

As Christmas and New Year approach, I start reflecting on blessings given to me by God for the year of 2012. It's a long list! I have enjoyed a year of good food and wine, health for my love ones and a year of peace amongst friends and family.

I am overflowing with blessings and I am sure it's the same with many of you, who have also experienced many great blessings worth rejoicing in 2012.

As we enjoy our Christmas celebrations this year, let's also give a feast to the poor who may not have had a good meal for the whole year. Let us reach out to the homeless and hungry that line the streets and live in shacks along the roads of Gujurat, India.

To be a homeless and hungry adult or child in India, is a suffering that you and I cannot imagine. I am sure it's even beyond our imagination.

This year, Project Kyrie shares with you this wonderful opportunity to reach out to these very poor people that we always hear about, watch on TV but usually impossible to reach.

We have a trusted Singaporean friend, whom we have worked with serving the poor for many years and he is heading to Gujarat to visit his family for several weeks. I have organised with him to buy packs of food costing $2.00 to $2.50 and to organize some volunteers to distribute this food to the homeless adults and children along the streets.

Receipts and photos will be provided to all who requires it. Photos will be uploaded on facebook as usual.

Those who would like to join me and celebrate the true meaning of Christmas and literally feed the poor , do let me know asap. We will order your food packs of blessings and distribute it for you.

We will be consolidating everybody's contribution up to the 18th of December 2012. Pls note if there are any left over funds we will use to buy necessities for the poor in India eg blankets and groundsheets etc.

Merry Christmas Everyone!
May God bless you all abundantly for your year of generosity to the poor!

God Bless,
Mill

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/
