NAME: Valliamah M. Balasundram
ASSISTANCE NEEDED: FINANCIAL SUPPORT, SCHOOL UNIFORMS AND SHOES, JOB AS A CLEANER AND A FLAT TO LIVE IN
NATURE OF THE CASE: Valliamah is from Taiping and her husband passed away leaving her with three daughters. The eldest is 13 years old and is studying in Sekolah Haji Zainal Abidin, the second daughter is 9 years old and the third is 8. Both of them are studying in Sekolah Kebangsaan Padang Tembak. She is finding it difficult to pay rent for the flat that they are living in right now.
We have managed to get an individual donor to offset her rental payments by RM500. And we have also obtained the help of a local politician from Bukit Bendera to contribute RM300 to her rent and some cash for her personal expenses.
We have also found some individual donors who were willing to provide sundry goods for the family on a regular basis. We also registered her with the Welfare Department and were recently informed that her allowance has been approved. She will be able to use the money to pay her rent and bills. We were able to obtain her a job as a cleaner in a nearby town, Farlim. She gets Rm 20 per day. The PPKB form (Urban Poverty Eradication Programme) has been submitted and awaiting further news.
