KPAC visit to Orphanages - 01/09/2008

Besides organizing running events,KPAC members also involved in charity activities.As today is the public holiday to substitute our National Day which fell on Sunday,some members took this opportunity to visit orphanages in Klang vicinity.

Groceries such as rice,vermicelli,noodles,biscuits,canned food and tidbits were donated by Persatuan Penganut Dewa Thean Hock Kong,Teluk Pulai Klang were distributed equally to three orphanages selected by Ms Tan Poh See of KPAC who is actively involved in charity works.Free transport was provided by JS Furniture.

Our first destination was the Persatuan Penjagaan Kanak-Kanak Cacat Klang (PPKKCKlg).This centre takes care of handicapped and disabled chidren such as vision,speech and hearing impaired,down syndrome,autistic and spastic children.It is located in Kampung Raja Uda,behind the Port Klang's Fire and Rescue station.There are about 40 occupants and l must say it is a pitiful sight.Nevertheless we hope our visit will bring some cheers to the orphans.

The next stop was at the Persatuan Rumah Kanak-kanak Ini Di Sayangi(KIDS).It is a home for the orphaned,neglected,abused and abandoned children.The place is well kept,tidy and clean.We made a quick stop as the sky looked gloomy and we need to rush before the downpour.

And our final destination was the Persatuan Kebajikan Rumah Jeevan.It also housed the abandoned,neglected and abused children.On seeing us approaching,the excited children rushed toward our small lorry to help to unload the groceries.This is the largest of the three orphanage we'd visited.

These children are very disciplined and self independence,they stacked the groceries neatly and stood behind readily for this photo without being told!
