DaVita Malaysia 1st Mass CSR Project!
When we say that we are a community first and a company second - we truly mean it by heart and we stand strong to shed some light for the betterment of our communities and that includes our patients, teammates and the world. What makes us different from others – our beliefs and the effort to creating a ripple of inspiration and meaning in people’s lives. The start of the year couldn’t get any better with a mass Corporate Service Responsibility project undertaken under the Village project flagship to provide back-to-school goodies for 250 children.
It is a unique yet humble partnership between DaVita Malaysia and Village Hope an NGO that houses more than 1000 children who are underprivileged due to differing unfortunate events experienced by each child that belongs to Village Hope. Most of the children are striving to catch up on their day-to-day lives because they are surviving the trauma of being abused, abandoned and some were also trafficked.
Davita Malaysia held its first largest Village project in April with 20 teammate volunteers abiding by all SOPs during the time Recovery Movement Control Order (RMCO). The event was held in DaVita Malaysia’s HQ in Kuala Lumpur. The event also had a surprise-twist when two of our clinical teammates stepped in as volunteers! Thank you Norlida Omar and Siti Zamidah, Facilities Administrators of Bangsar and Kajang for making it all the way as powerful volunteers!
Our proud volunteers embarked on a creative activity to pack 250 stationery goodies and backpack with personalised handmade cards that are written and coloured with motivational quotes and words of wisdom. The event was also volunteered by Matt Williams, Juanita Anthony, Pao Kuen Koh, Nor Majidah and Arjan Singh.
It is amazing and truly intriguing to witness our teammates in the village living up to the Village’s core values while being enthusiastic about creating a special place for our patients, each other, and the broader community. With this, we would like to extend our special thanks to our volunteer teammates who have provided their effortless contribution towards this noble cause!
