A fun-filled CSR programme at
Salak Tinggi
The fifth of September 2015 was a
day when seventy students of Baitul
Barokah Wal Mahabbah, a privately-run
orphanage in Salak Tinggi, became winners. The orphanage was the host venue
of Perdana Leadership Foundation’s
CSR Information Literacy programme
and the students were the special guests
of the day who took part in games and
activities organised by the Foundation.
The event was conducted by the Perdana Library with Puan Suriyana Mohd
Noor as lead coordinator.

The day began with morning exercise led by librarians Encik Ridhwan, Cik
Rokayah and Cik Arifah. Despite being
shy at first, the students got into the
swing of things and thoroughly loosened up by the end of the session. The
physical activity prepped them for activities that followed: the historical quiz,
spelling bee, information hunt, and arts
and crafts. There were tired but happy
faces all around when it came time for
the winners to be announced. Everyone
won a prize and the top winners received
hampers and trophies. The orphanage
received a donation from the Foundation in the form of books and posters for
their mini-library. To commemorate Eidul Adha, the Foundation also donated a
cow to the orphanage.
Just when the Foundation’s staff
were ready to pack up and leave, the
students surprised the Foundation by
putting on a performance that showcased their singing skills. That was the
perfect end to a day of learning and
activity.
