Sunway Putra Mall had initiated this year end CSR campaign to work together with the public to give back to the community. The campaign targets to cultivate the love of reading among the younger generation in collaboration with The Salvation Army, a Non-Profit Organisation that helps the under privileged communities by providing a wide range of community services that include residential homes for children and the elderly, a centre for special needs children, family support services, day cares, tuition centres and emergency relief services amongst others…..

So there were 30 underprivileged kids who were present at the event, ranging from 4 to 19 years old, carefully selected from charity homes supported by The Salvation Army.

This funds will then be used to support The Salvation Army’s centres and their work with the underprivileged communities across Malaysia

The day did not end after the event but rather the kids were brought to the Parenthood Playland where they had a wonderful time playing with each other leaving the kids with huge contented smiles and a new memory they can hold on to…
