The Sikh faith celebrates kindness and charitable acts by human beings, with the belief that good deeds bring people closer to divinity. In this spirit, through its Staff-In-The-Community programme, Da Ma Cai organised a community project at the Gurdwara Sahib Kampung Pandan Settlement, Kuala Lumpur.
Da Ma Cai recently contributed to four socio-economically deprived Sikh families to supplement these families with their basic needs; with each families receiving RM1,000 groceries shopping vouchers. The remaining funds were channeled to the renovation and upgrading works for the Gurdwara, including prayer hall, ceiling at common dining hall, fencing wall and gate.
“We appreciate Da Ma Cai’s generosity and thoughtful contribution, it definitely has lighten the burden of the beneficiary families and the Gurdwara as well,” said Apthar Singh, President of Gurdwara Sahib Kampung Pandan Settlement.
Karubajan Singh who suffered from stroke and thus unemployed, has five members in his families. As he is struggling to make ends meet, he is thankful for this timely aid.
The Gurdwara caters to 200 Sikh families within the area of Kampung Pandan and has long been in need of funds for renovation in order to maintain its basic facilities, such as the prayer hall where the priest and devotees congregate for prayers and the kitchen with a common dining hall.
As part of this corporate social responsibility activity, a group of volunteers from Da Ma Cai recently visited the Gurdwara. Volunteers were treated to a sumptuous vegetarian meal prepared by community members of the Gurdwara.
