With the Christmas holiday season underway, Food For the Poor Guyana Inc (FFTP) is calling on kind-hearted Guyanese and businesses to support its Angel of Hope Programme, which provides support to vulnerable children in institutional care.

According to FFTP Guyana Inc Public Relations Officer Jonelle De Viera, the programme currently supports 198 children in homes through the programme, which is almost two decades old. Support is given in the form of a monthly supply of food items, cleaning supplies, and toiletries.

Since the start of the pandemic, FFTP has been purchasing essential food and other supplies for the homes to safeguard against shortages.
