KLANG: JCI Entrepreneur Metropolitan Kuala Lumpur, in partnership with FRIMEC Sales & Services Sdn Bhd, Pusat Pakaian Hari-Hari and KFC Malaysia proudly hosted its annual charity event aimed at empowering orphans through the freedom of choice.
This year, for the third year the event is organised supported 44 orphans and under deserving children from the Good Samaritan Home, giving them the opportunity to shop for their new clothes, shoes, school bags, and stationery.
This initiative stands out from traditional donation drives by giving orphans the ability to shop for their essentials, fostering a sense of autonomy and self-expression. Through this approach, the programme underscores the importance of personal choices in shaping their futures, even amidst challenging circumstances.
“It’s not just about giving material items; it’s about giving them the power to make decisions, boosting their confidence, and showing them that they are loved and supported by their community,” said Taylor Chan, the Organising Chairlady of the programme.
The 44 orphans and under deserving children who participated in this year’s event walked away with more than just new clothes and school supplies.
“They left with a renewed sense of dignity, empowerment, and hope for the future. By making their own selections, they experienced the
joy of choice and self-expression—essential steps in building self-esteem and confidence.
"We hope we can continue to support this kind of meaningful for many years to come”, added Vivian Teo, Local President of JCI Entrepreneur Metropolitan Kuala Lumpur.
JCI Entrepreneur Metropolitan Kuala Lumpur has a long-standing history of organising impactful charity events designed to uplift underprivileged members of the community. With a mission to create lasting change, the organisation remains committed to empowering future generations in
line with JCI Creed.
This year’s event was also made possible thanks to the generosity of the members of the public and FRIMEC Sales & Services Sdn Bhd and Pusat Pakaian Hari-Hari who had sponsored the new year clothes shopping and KFC for providing the lunch meal.
