Celebrities such as Miss Asia Pageant Malaysia 2013 Geena Yew and Jeremy Teo , emcee, host and radio announcer dropped drop by to give their support and spend some quality time with the children too.

Well here's some feedback on what the organizers and managers had to say.

“In line with our vision of being a community mall, we believe in making a difference through collaborating and connecting with our many publics and stakeholders. We believe this has been an eye-opening and learning experience for proPassion Communications, as well as for the underprivileged children, and we couldn’t be more delighted to have them join us today.” said the General Manager of Encorp Strand Mall.

ProPassion Communications advisor and lecturer at Taylor’s University, Thaera Yousef, said that ,“This is one of the most powerful teaching tools available as it focuses on hands-on experience in order to increase knowledge, develop skills, and clarify values. The experience that the students learn from this do-good social programme will enable them to not apply theories learned from previous semesters into real-life practice but also shape them into well-rounded people,” continued Thaera.

Prior to the celebrations of the day, proPassion Communications also ran a week-long fundraising event in Taylor’s University, and other hangout spots in Kota Damansara, Petaling Jaya. According to the team, the response was very positive. The students raised RM 6,500 to be channeled to Praise Emmanuel Children’s Home and Rumah Amal Suci Rohani. A visit to the homes is also scheduled for next week.

“As a team, we took two months putting everything together. It wasn’t easy, and there were many ups and downs along the way, but overall working for a cause so close to our hearts made it all worthwhile. We would like to also take the opportunity to thank Encorp Strand Mall as well as our industry advisor, GROUP MAD,” added Deanna Anuar, 23, student and member of proPassion Communications.
