BUKA PUASA WITH ORPHANS IN PUCHONG 23 SEPT 08

THERE WAS FOOD, DONATIONS, EDUCATION AND FUN...
THANK YOU FOR HELPING THE RUMAH AMAL LIMPAHAN KASIH ORPHANAGE IN PUCHONG.

The buka puasa at the Limpahan Kasih orphanage in Puchong was a great success. The operator of the orphanage, as well as the orphans - thank you all for your help and contributions.

As for a "joy ride" organized for the orphans, we were privileged to have as many as 21 offroad 4x4 vehicles taking part! The orphans had so much fun and adventure throughout the ride on the nearby offroad track, that they did not stop talking about it! Many were also eager to know more about our activities. Our heartfelt thanks and appreciation is extended to the team from the Offroader Shack or ORS for taking the kids for the joyride.

We had also set up a number of radio stations to demonstrate to the kids what radio communication is about. Many volunteers also chipped in to help prepare the food.

Last but not least, many many thanks to all the volunteers, ham and non-ham alike, who joined the 4x4 trip, help to cook, set up radio stations and/or coordinate the event, as well as those that donated cash, secondhand items, toys, gifts and school items (they even got bicycles!).
Thank you for making it a memorable time for orphans. We hope to do more of such events in the future!
