Championing Cybersecurity at a young age

It was honestly not an easy task given the wide variety of items, handling of heavy items, differing expiry dates and limited space for sorting and packing. I’m very grateful for all the support. I was very touched to see volunteers pushing past 6 pm to complete the stock-take despite how tiring the entire process was. Thanks to the volunteers’ time and effort, we now have a clear overview of our inventory at a glance.
