In-kind Donations to Promise Home - A Giveback to Society
We, ICE AGENCY SDN BHD are always concern about people who need help and improve the lives of less-fortunate communities in Malaysia. With the aim to help and secure future generations, we took the opportunity to contribute to Promise Home by making in-kind donations and visit.
Promise Home was established in 2011 to help underprivileged Orang Asli children by providing them opportunity of education. It does not only provide the children with access to free education, the home also helps to improve the children’s hygiene and health conditions.
Promise Home currently takes care of 40+ children with ages ranging from 7 to 17 years old. These children are from 4 different villages around Slim River, Perak and they are the indigenous people or we call them “Orang Asli”. The children staying in this home are not orphans but they have never been to school and most of them do not even have proper access to clean water and electricity in their villages.
Since we are in the education industry, we have the responsibility and obligation to help the children to ensure they have an access to education. Based on their request on daily necessities, we made some in-kind donations including powdered drinks, sardine cans, shampoos, shower gels, laundry detergents, floor cleaners and slippers.
In the very beginning, the children have to learn from zero, such as alphabets, numbers and even how to hold a pencil. Until today, most of the children are now enrolled into government primary schools in Bukit Kemuning after having tuition classes by volunteering teachers for 2 years. Some of them even go to secondary schools after graduating from primary schools.
In the future, ICE AGENCY SDN BHD will not only provide education services, but also would also continue to make an effort to give back to the society. We believe even the smallest contribution can make an impact on someone in need and make the world a better place.
