Guardian
Malaysia, the leader in health and beauty retailing, is marking its
50th anniversary with a RM250,000 community project to
upgrade the facilities of 10 charity homes in the country. These homes, seven
of which are orphanages, are located near to Guardian outlets in various parts
of the country. Most of them have requested for repairs, upgrading
and refurbishment of living quarters.
Mouse mommy always support
corporate social responsibility (CSR) project and this Guardian Malaysia CSR
project was really helpful and practical in improving orphanage's daily life.
The Guardian Malaysia not only donate a budget for this CSR movement, The
Guardian staffs also play role and involved directly in this movement. Well
done!
Another
thumbs up for Ms Mala as in she was not only taking care of the basic needs of
the children. She was nurturing and cultivate the children's talent according
to their capabilities. As in mouse mommy saw many trophy and awards in the
orphanage home's cupboard. Such a caring and attentive of Ms Mala for the
children!
In addition
to a budget of RM250,000, Guardian
Malaysia has also encouraged its staff to volunteer their
time to help in the improvement works, and to spend some quality time with the
children.
Leading by example, is Chief Executive
Officer of Guardian
Health and Beauty Sdn Bhd (Guardian Malaysia), Mr. Soren
Lauridsen. Leading a team from Guardian’s store support
office and Guardian stores, he spent time today, helping to repaint the gates,
perimeter walls and grilles of Pertubuhan Kebajikan Anak Yatim Mary, in
Setapak, Kuala Lumpur.
No job gets done easily.
All of this required manpower and efforts from everyone that get involved.
Repaint the gates, walls and grilles for Pertubuhan Kebajikan Anak Yatim Mary,
Kuala Lumpur was taken three days to completed the task. Mouse mommy was happy
and appreciate the hardwork that done by the sincere Guardian Malaysia staffs.
Well done!
In addition to the fresh paint-work, Guardian
Malaysia also installed air-conditioners, fans and mosquito
nettings for the orphanage, which is home for 55 orphans and children from
single-parent families.
Mr Lauridsen said: “Each year, as we celebrate our
anniversary, we make it a point to reach out to those in need. Over
the years, Guardian has been extending aid and assistance through various
forms. Often its financial contributions, other times, its donation in kind and
through fun and cheer. This year, as Guardian
Malaysia is celebrating our 50th anniversary,
we decided to extend greater support to those living close to where we operate.”
“We asked our teams at the stores to recommend charity homes in their
neighbourhood which needed repairs or improvements, but were short of funds. We
picked 10 homes where we see our contributions as making a meaningful
difference.”
Mr. Lauridsen was happy that by helping to improve the living
quarters of these children, orphans and the elderly and believe that
able to empowering them to be more confident and eventually become
self-sufficient.
