In-conjunction with the month of Ramadan
leading to the festivities of Hari Raya, it is timely and important to remind
society to give back in many forms and ways. Watsons Malaysia has taken the
opportunity to partner with the Darul Insyirah Centre for Senior Citizens
through its #MisiIkhlasAidilfitri CSR campaign in-line with the upcoming
festivities of Hari Raya. During the month of Ramadan, fasting enables Muslims
to develop compassion for the less fortunate and to empathise with their
hardship.
Hari Raya is a time to be with the family and
to ask for forgiveness from the elders. The Watsons #MisiIkhlasAidilfitri campaign encourages anyone to share
their mission on social media (Facebook
or Instagram) and hashtag
#MisiIkhlasAidilfitri and
#WatsonsMalaysia. Watsons Malaysia will then donate 200 points (equivalent
to RM1) to the Darul Insyirah Centre for Senior Citizens for every hashtag. At
the end of the campaign, the Darul Insyirah Centre will be able to use the
total accumulated points to be redeemable in cash value for the purchase of
products in Watsons Malaysia. The Watsons #MisiIkhlasAidilfitri campaign has been
running since 15 May and will end on 2 July 2018.
“At Watsons we are taking the lead to initiate and promote random acts of kindness to those who are less privileged or require help from society. It is timely in the month of Ramadan to remind the young to appreciate the elders, so we decided to partner with a centre for the elderly which is the Darul Insyirah Centre for Senior Citizens, where the centre has been housing and providing care for 60 senior citizens. By the year 2030, Malaysia will join a large number of Asian nations as an 'aging' nation. It is important to promote a caring society among Malaysians to help the elderly survive their golden years with dignity and independence.
At Watsons we advocate our customers to “Look
Good, Feel Great” and feeling great does not refer to the material things that
we possess but rather an emotionally fulfilling experience for you and your
loved ones. For this Hari Raya festivities, our mission is to remind Malaysians
to feel great first, hence, the ideation of the #MisiIkhlasAidilfitri campaign,
by encouraging actions of good deeds with pure and honest intentions,” said
Caryn Loh, Managing Director of Watsons Malaysia.
During the CSR buka puasa at the Darul
Insyirah Centre for Senior Citizens, media, celebrities, guests and residents
of the centre were entertained with a traditional ghazal and “live” nasyid
performances. All guests who had attended were also encouraged to record their
“misi ikhlas” and posting it up on social media with hashtag #MisiIkhlasAidilfitri and #WatsonsMalaysia. “Green packets” and
cookies were also given out by Caryn Loh to the elderly residents.
“We are grateful and appreciative that Watsons has created this meaningful campaign that not only benefits our residents but promotes a caring society for the elderly. It is of utmost importance that the elderly are not forgotten or abandoned as they are aging. A lot of elderly people are actually having unpleasant feelings of solitude. So we should also teach the next generation to be more compassionate and caring towards the elderly and to bring joy into their lives” expressed founder and chairperson, Hajjah Asral Widad Ahmad Asnawi of the Darul Insyirah Centre for Senior Citizens.
Watsons Malaysia also showcased its “Misi Ikhlas Aidilfitri” short film at
the launch that showcased the importance of being kind and sincere to ourselves
and others. Watch here: https://goo.gl/nF5mzx
