Back to School #1.1, Port Klang - Dec 2019

... continuation of last week event.
BTS #1.1 continuation for Port Klang. Due to heavy rain last week, the 5 kids from Pulau Indah didn't make it. Pn Fidah also asked if it's possible to support for orang asli kids. Managed to get additional funding for 5 more kids. Thank you all for the contribution and volunteers who came and help out. Billion supermarket also kind enough to give the kids goody bags. As we say our goodbyes, the kids were smiling with the new uniforms and bags, and that smile, you can't buy with money.















Back to School #2, Sg Buloh - Dec 2019

Back To School #2 completed for 10 kids from Sg Buloh. Heavy rain and crowded shop took us one and half hour to select the uniforms. Shop was over crowded with parents buying school uniforms and payment queue was super long. Once the purchasing was done, we proceed to an Indian restaurant for early dinner and distribution of school bags and colour pencils. At the restaurant, one of the mother was shy to order, as she said that 'goreng goreng mahal'. I guess what is normal for us, is not normal for them as it's a luxury for them to eat out. The husband is a security guard, and with 6 kids, his pay is never enough especially when comes to year end school uniforms. I'm grateful the uniforms are settled for the family (TQ sponsors) and with monthly groceries settled by Koppal's sponsors. Again, many thanks to sponsors to solve their yearly year end headache. Many thanks to uncle Koppal for arranging the logistics










Back to School #1, Port Klang - Dec 2019

Back To School #1 completed... without some of the children. Only 9 sets of uniform were purchased. Another 5+3 children's parents were uncontactable.....#facepalm. We waited over an hour, and keep calling but unable to reach them. So will arrange another date and time for the children, else will see any orphanage that need help. The children are well mannered and discipline and it helps us in getting the clothing for them. Additional items such as bags, pencil box, biscuits from Lisa were also given. Many thanks to sponsors and volunteers for helping out. Looking forward for tomorrow's Part 2 at Sg Buloh.

Mooncake Festival at Ci-Hang - Sept 2019

Sept 7, 2019 - We celebrated our first Moon Cake Festival at Ci Hang old folks home. Dinner starts at 6pm, but all volunteers were there by 5:30pm to get ready with the preparation. Quality time with the old folks were well spent with a lot of fun, laughter and of course...numbers of karaoke songs that come together with dancing package! At some point of the karaoke session, we began to sound like a bunch of cheapskates who cannot afford to rent karaoke room LOL. Apart from lighting up the candles and lanterns together, we had the pleasure to also celebrate Mark's birthday with everyone, just because happy moments are meant to be shared.

Many thanks to all volunteers, particularly those who have specially prepared vegetarian food, those who joined and spent time with the old folks despite everyone's tight schedules and kind-hearted sponsors for the useful goodie bags items.

Of course, overall moments were nicely captured by our officially unofficial photographer which warrant a special album for the good photo collections
