MNRB Holdings Berhad (MNRB) and its wholly-owned subsidiary company, Malaysian Reinsurance Berhad (Malaysian Re) celebrated Chinese New Year with 43 disabled people of Beautiful Gate Caring Centre in Petaling Jaya recently.
They donated RM5,000 to the home and presented food hampers to the residents.
Beautiful Gate Caring Centre was established in 1995 and is located at No. 29, Jalan SS2/59, Petaling Jaya, Selangor Darul Ehsan.
PETALING JAYA-based real estate agent Elvincom Realtor decided to include the less fortunate in its one-year anniversary celebration.
Besides its employees and business partners, about 50 guests from the Beautiful Gate Foundation for the Disabled and the Lovely Disabled Home, both from SS2, Petaling Jaya, also joined in the anniversary dinner at the Loong Foong Restaurant in Taman Mayang.
Elvincom Realtor office manager Wendy Chan said that organising events with the people from the disable homes has always been something close to her heart.
“That’s why I told my husband (Elvincom Realtor principal Elvin Liew) that we must include them during our anniversary celebration,” said Chan, who is also the Aman Suria Residents Association chairman.
It was a jovial atmosphere as all those present started the dinner with the auspicious yee sang toss to usher in wealth and prosperity for the year.
