KUCHING: The Kuching Chi Jia Charitable Society organised the Chinese New Year charity event in Batu Tiga on 2 March to provide assistance to families in need.
The group organised the gathering of donors, committee members and community leaders to provide support in the form of cash contributions and essential items. Money was raised through a charity sale, with donations distributed at the ceremony.
YB Datuk Lo Khere Chiang, representing Sarawak Deputy Premier and Minister of Public Health, Housing and Local Government, YB Datuk Amar Dr Sim Kui Hian, said that the society’s continued dedication to assist the needy is much appreciated by Dr Sim.
During his speech, Datuk Lo spoke about the wider’s reach of charity work highlighting that it doesn’t just help ease someone’s daily struggle, but also give hope and confidence to a family in need. “The work of these charities not only helps to make daily life better but also brings hope and reassurance to families experiencing lack,” he said.
The event’s atmosphere was warm and caring, representing the spirit of unity and compassion of Sarawak’s community support during festive seasons. Organisers said that more than material assistance, the distribution sought to build community ties and reassurance for families that they did not stand alone in their hardships.
