While there are still a lot of people complaining about having to stay indoors and still flouting the compulsory mask-wearing safe distancing rules, most Singaporeans are staying home.
And we are able to do so thanks to delivery services that are still ongoing to bring us the food that we crave and the essentials (think toilet rolls) that we need.
To show appreciation for the delivery men and women who are venturing outdoors to ensure that our basic needs and creature comforts are met, local creative agency, Kinetic Singapore, has designed 24 #ThankYouDeliveryHeroes posters to help Singaporeans convey their gratitude.

This is especially because most of us are opting for contactless delivery and won't be able to say thank you in person. As Kinetic Singapore puts it, "Deliveries may not be contactless, but they don't have to be heartless."
The initiative has been well-received, with people sharing how they have heeded the call and showing off posters displayed on their walls and doors for delivery folks to see.

Not having a printer has not stopped creative individuals from joining the movement either. They have taken to coloured markers to make their own versions of the posters and hung them up.

Other individuals have taken the initiative one step further, by offering treats and snacks to deliverymen, alongside the poster.
