Its been an exciting and great year for us, with overdose of activities at certain weekends that hardly give our
volunteers the time to rest. Nevertheless, I am sure everyone was happy
when the work is completed and smiling faces all around. First and foremost, I would like to thank all donors and
sponsors who have contributed their time and money to ensure all projects can be completed successfully. Without your support, we would not are able to achieve so many projects.
For 2013, we completed a total of 27 projects. The following are the summary of amount was received and utilised for the year :-
Total receiveable RM30,002.46
Total expenses RM28.104.30
Balance C/F RM1898.16
Note : The amount does not include items donated by sponsors.
Project Summary
In the first quarter, we started our initial pilot
project of providing groceries to the needies. With
good response from the donors, we were able to sustain for the next 8
months till November 2013. Our little contribution of RM100 wont help to
make their live better, but the least it would do is ease their burden
for the month. Hopefully, we will be able to continue this project in
2014. For February, we provided some groceries to Pusat Penjagaan Kanak Kanak Cacat Klang.
In March, we organised a Kid's Movie Day for Anbe Sivam Orphanage for 26
children, and McDonald for tea break. We also visited
Pertubuhan Kebajikan Kanak-kanak Yatim & Miskin Wawasan Port Dickson
to provide groceries to the home in April.
After some absence from Kajang Home, we visited them again in May.
In June, we do a joint project with our sister NGO, Project MADE for 26
poor families in SJKC Ming Tee, Kg Tiram Baru.
We also responded to
an urgent request for groceries for St Judes Home in Shah Alam in July,
and for the Syawal Feeding Program this year, we provided basic groceries to 100
families in PPR Bt Muda, Jalan Ipoh. It is an amazing feat by the team
have collected items and funds to ensure all things fall into place due
to the limited time frame we need to work on. We also provide some
grocery relief to the poor in Kg Samy, Port Klang and to a home in Batu Pahat as when our volunteer goes outstation.
In September, we move further up to Sabak Bernam in our Groceries
Program for the Needy for 50 families. We also visited Myanmar Refugee
Home (United Learning Center) at Jalan Imbi. Special thanks to Domino
Pizza for sponsoring the pizza for the children.
October was a busy month with visit to Persatuan Kebajikan WargaTua & Kanak
Kanak K.L and also provide groceries to 60 needy families in PPR
Muhibbah. And for Deepavali, we had Reach Out (Wednesday Team) to sponsored
groceries in conjunction with Deepavali for the needy families. In December, we did a Back To School Program 2013
which we provided school uniforms to 50 students in PPR Kota Damansara,
and a final project to Kuantan flood victims before the year end.
It has been a
very fruitful year for 1M1c and hats off to our volunteers who have put in much effort, time and money
to ensure each and every project is completed successfully. In short, I would also like to thank our following sister NGOs for their invaluable support - Reach Out Malaysia, Together We Make A Difference, Hearts : Charity Beings From the Heart and Project MADE. This year, also a year of friendship and we meet a lot of new
friends that are like minded and we were able to work together to benefit the society. :)
With
the rising cost of living, its expected that things would be more
difficult for everyone. While it would be hard for us - the middle class
working people, but do bear in mind there are others that are in worse
position than us. I do believe that with everyone contribute a small sum, collectively we will be able to make a difference. Hence, we do hope your contribution will keep coming in to
help them. Again,
thank you again to all our volunteers and sponsors for keeping 1M1c
going for 4 years! Hope to see you in our events! :)
