On a beautiful Sunday morning, 14 August 2011, several members from the Rotaract Club of Pudu have visited the Old Folks Home located in Jenjarom which is organized by the Rotary Club of Pudu. Members from the Rotaract Club of Pudu that attended this event were Jitco, Edwin, Kwai Hong and myself, Chestal.
The Rotary Club of Pudu has been very supportive of this home since 1988. Each year, they will pay a visit to this home at least twice. On this particular visit, the Rotary Club of Pudu has donated RM3, 000, a DVD player and a refrigerator with the Rotary logo on it, to the home. Furthermore, the visitors also brought some items to be donated to the home such as toiletries, rice, shirts, etc. Next, a few speeches were delivered by the caretakers of the home, Mr Chin and Mr Ang; Organizing Chairperson of this event, Rotarian Moksin; President of the Rotary Club of Pudu, Rotarian Steven Oon; lastly from the service director, Rotarian Daisy Chew. With addition to that, goodie bags were also distributed to the old folks at the home. We were informed that a new committee has been formed to assist the Home.
Before we gave away the dim sums, roasted pork and Chinese tea to the men from the Old Folks home, we all gathered for a photo taking session. All the occupants at the home enjoyed their day with the Rotarians, rotractors and guests.
The event ended at about 1pm and we all then adjourned to Carey Island for lunch and fellowship.
