GENTING Malaysia Berhad paid tribute to several charitable organisations by pledging a total of RM250,000 to 25 organisations.
During the contribution ceremony, Genting Berhad deputy chairman Tun Mohammed Hanif Omar lauded the institutes’ commitment and their facilitators’ devotion in serving the less fortunate.
He also praised them for improving the lives of the needy, contributing to the greater good of society.
“It is not how long you have been in operation that is important, but rather the effort that you have put in to make a difference.
“Genting Malaysia recognises the contribution every home has made in terms of providing necessities, infrastructures and organising programmes.
“We have seen how they have helped the less fortunate grow in self-worth and given them a sense of belonging,” said Hanif.
Over the years, Genting has made numerous contributions to fund the efforts and expenses of several organisations.
Through its annual Chinese New Year contribution, the company seeks to continue helping organisations bring positive change to the community.
This year, 25 charitable organisations received RM10,000 each. They include the Chinese Medical Aid Department, Rumah Amal Cheshire, Persatuan Kebajikan Ci Hang-Cempaka Selangor and Persatuan Rumah Kebajikan Rita, to name a few.
The charities include homes for the elderly, orphanages, organisations for people with special needs as well as rehabilitation centres.
