SG Funpacks delivered to the elderly in Yuhua

More than 3,000 pioneer generation households in Yuhua had SG Funpacks delivered to their doorsteps yesterday.

Over 200 grassroots volunteers and youths joined Minister in the Prime Minister's Office Grace Fu in distributing the packs, minimising the need for the elderly residents to travel to collect the packs.

Ms Fu is also adviser to Yuhua Grassroots Organisations and MP for Yuhua.

The funpacks are given to every Singaporean and permanent resident household to celebrate the country's 50th birthday this year.
