Where: 
Salwa Road

After the 1st phase of collection of Donations, I am still receiving calls on my mobile and several PMs from generous people to accept their donations and distribute to the needy labourers.

I cannot say NO to all those who are still willing to donate.

Today I spoke to the Company representative and they have no objection in receiving donations for their needy people.

Please note I will be again availble on the same collection point on Saturday 3rd May 2007:

I will be available in the parking of a new under construction next to NBK showroom :

Car Park BY the Mercedes showroom on Salwa Rd.
Saturday, 03/05/08
6:00 PM until 7:00 PM (18:00hrs to 19:00hrs only)

My mobile number - 660 4594

Kindly inform others and please try to come on time. We will leave for the camp which is behind Thrusday/ Friday Market on Salwa Road very close to our above colletion point.

Kindly note: This will be our last collection and after this we will not do any collection, if anyone willing to donate they can directly visit the HBK labour camp and donate.

Thank you and God bless you All.

Sorry but I missed the Sat May 3rd drop-off. Will there be a third? After visiting the affected people and seeing their need, what still do they lack? What can I prepare for them?

Sorry, this was our last collection as a group, you may go directly to the HBK labour camp and donate yourself personally.

God bless you.

baedaebok said Remaining needs? ...

OK that's fine. My second questions remains: what are the remaining needs of this HBK labour camp?

Eco-savvy said Baedaebok their main requirement are food items ...

avoid toiletries.

Speed I just want to know on road 37 only 100 are dwelling
what about rest 500? Where are they located


 

SPEED's picture

SPEED said baedaebok.. ...

i think food stuff is a good idea to donate.. clothes they have now enough from QLer and other donors.
Dry food items such as rice/wheat etc ,,, or powder juices such as Tang etc.. will be good.
Even some people donated Kitchen utensil such as plates/kettles/ tea cups etc..

So it's upto you or feel free to call me.

Ind. area 27 is their new labour accommodation which was supposed to be ready bu end of June 2008 but due to this disaster HBK on emergency basis arranged the electricity connection and window ACs to accommodate as many they can .. initially we were able to move only 200 labourers, today i was told the almost everyone who were effected in the balze has been moved.
I had a brief meeting with HBK Supervisor and he briefed me . Also he showed me the amount they paid (QR.750/- each) to the labourers.

In Short HBK is distributing all the donations received to the needy labourers only, and i am confident about it.

For your info. I will pay a visit to Ind. area 27 after few weeks and talk to the labourers directly to ensure if everything is fine with them.

Rest Allah knows better.

casanova said ksarat16 ...

Sorry dude…

Sorry for being harsh…

In fact I have some more donation received by some of my collogues which I couldn’t bring with me tonight, so Speed advised me to go directly to the camp and drop it yourself and when I saw some posts by speed advising them food stuff to donate, I asked him…….
Well, since u didn’t know all this, I was not expecting a reply from you…
And what did u mean by DIDN’T SHOWN UP TODAY AS WELL???…. For your information I went there on the first drop off also, but returned back a bit earlier due to some reasons…. but I was there on the first day AS WELL…
