Volunteers working with the SMOM embassy and the Holy Family Cathedral parish carried out a Christmas parcel distribution campaign. The parcels were delivered to the homes of people in need and the sick, whose numbers in Antigua and Barbuda have increased significantly in recent times. The parcels contained food, sweets and personal hygiene products. Thanks to these parcels, Christmas Eve dinners were held in many homes in Antigua.
Volunteers working at the SMOM Embassy have begun distributing food parcels to people in need. This activity complements the soup kitchen. The parcels contain, among other things, pasta, rice, tinned meat, tinned fish, garlic, onions, potatoes, flour, instant soups, oatmeal, olive oil, biscuits, tomato paste, and personal hygiene products such as soap, shampoo, and toilet paper. The food parcels distributed by the Embassy are a very important element of support for people who are sick, elderly, or deprived of basic means of subsistence. In addition to food parcels, these people also receive assistance in the form of hot meals delivered to their homes by volunteers.
