    SP Group delivered over 2,800 Power Packs - comprising food items, vitamins and antigen rapid test kits, among others - on Thursday (Jan 20) to low-income families around the island ahead of the Chinese New Year festive season.

    The company aims to donate a record 10,000 Power Packs by end of this year to the same number of families.

    The annual SP Power Packs charity drive is into its ninth year and the company has committed over S$1.1 million to the items which were prepared and distributed by SP's staff volunteers.

    Group chief executive officer of SP Group, Stanley Huang, said: "Our annual SP Power Packs charity drive is timely for the festive season. Going further, we are stepping up our contributions through sustained outreach throughout the year, to ensure that the needs of vulnerable families continue to be met.

    "SP Group's contribution of over S$1.1 million, together with the volunteer efforts of our staff, will help 10,000 households this year, and provide relief from the pandemic."

    For this first distribution of the year, SP collaborated with AMKFSC Community Services, Touch Community Services, and the constituency offices of Toa Payoh West-Thomson, Kolam Ayer, Tampines West and Taman Jurong.
