Tropicana Foundation, a charity arm of property developer Tropicana Corporation Berhad brought some early Christmas cheer to 50 underprivileged children and their 10 guardians from three welfare homes in the Klang Valley through a delicious luncheon spread prepared by the chefs from Tropicana Golf & Country Resort.
The three homes included the Lighthouse Children Welfare Home Association, Pusat Jagaan Persatuan Kanak-Kanak Trinity, and Rumah Charis. This is the second year the Foundation has organised this Christmas luncheon for underprivileged children at the Tropicana Gardens Mall in Tropicana Indah.
“Underprivileged children are some of the most vulnerable communities in our society. The social workers who look after them tirelessly are also some of the most underappreciated personnel in Malaysia’s workforce. Tropicana is delighted to host this Christmas luncheon, to do our part in bringing some Christmas cheer to the children and their faithful guardians in this season of joy,” said Jared Ethan Ang, Group Executive Director of Tropicana.
Other generous sponsors of gifts for the 50 children included Golden Screen Cinema, The Entertainer, Taco Bell and TeaLive, Loudspeaker, and Book Xcess. They contributed special merchandise, toys, food and drinks, story books and a karaoke session.
The three homes also received dry goods that Tropicana Foundation had collected from its Buggy of Joy drive at Tropicana Gardens Mall.
Back for the second year, the Buggy of Joy donation drive at Tropicana Gardens Mall got off to a strong start on 10 November 2021. The general public can still contribute to the Buggy of Joy by dropping off dry goods at the Centre Court, CC Floor of Tropicana Gardens Mall up to 22 December 2021.
The Tropicana Foundation also accepts cash donations via CIMB Bank Berhad account number 8003575210. Visit bit.ly/BuggyofJoy if you require a receipt for your cash donation.
