Be A Child’s HERO
By Evon Lee (CSR Committee) and Mr. See Khek Bin’s Team (Butterworth Branch)
The non-government organisation known as Pertubuhan Bakti Yong-Ai Daerah Kulim Kedah or “Yong-Ai” was founded on July 10, 1995 and is entirely dependent on donations and fundraising from the public and social activists.
“Yong-Ai” is a home for orphans and children aged from 4 to 18 years, of single-parent families. Today, more attention is being drawn to single-parent families in our society due to the negligence of care and education of their children while adults are fighting to survive. These affected children tend to rebel more due to lack of love from a complete family. As such, “Yong-Ai,” a Home that offers accommodation and daily meals, imparts a proper understanding of life to orphans/ youngsters by giving them education and affection. Currently, there are 11 children staying at the Home.
We proposed to provide RM2500 as part of our CSR drive to help with their monthly operations cost, including education, tuition, utilities, and salary of a permanent caretaker. A contribution of an additional RM 2500 for necessities, include 10 mattresses, pillows, and daily household products.
Thanks to Mr. See Khek Bin and his team members – Molly Cheah, Linus Lim, and Sean Ng, who paid a visit to Yong-Ai on 19th May, 2023.
~Nothing you do for children is ever wasted~
