HaiYun Charity Carnival

Press Release for HaiYun Charity Carnival

Yet another project organized by HaiYun, the Charity Carnival is scheduled to roll out in full regalia on 27th and 28th November 2010 at Tropicana City Mall.

As an initiative jointly mooted, endorsed, and collaborated by HaiYun and various major sponsors, it is intended to call upon more corporate citizens and the masses to care for the needy children who are currently under the care of Persatuan Penjagaan Kanak-Kanak Cacat Klang Selangor – the sole beneficiary of the Charity Carnival.

It is also hoped that this charity movement of HaiYun will reawaken in the general public the caring hearts they are born with, so that this garden of passion will continue to be irrigated with more projects initiated by HaiYun coming their way to benefit many more of the underprivileged societies.

A double-storey terrace house in Teluk Pulai was where the centre of Persatuan Penjagaan Kanak-Kanak Cacat Klang Selangor started in December 1994. However, due to the frequent complaints lodged by neighbors claiming that the children were making too much noise, the centre has moved to its present premises at Port Klang since August 1999.

Initially, it was set up with the objective of caring for the physically-handicapped children, such as the mentally-retarded, deaf, mute, dull-witted, and the likes. But no thanks to the prevailing moral degeneration, the centre has in recent years become the convenient asylum for abandoned or unwanted children, making it more and more congested for comfortable occupation.

Today, the number of children in the centre has increased to as many as 78. They are aged between 2 to 25, and are mostly ethnic Chinese. The huge operating expenses, which include the children’s monthly tuition fee, transportation cost, and rentals, have skyrocketed along with the wages for the teachers, physiotherapists, cooks, drivers, and other staff members.

The financial burden is getting from bad to worse as the total operating expenses have risen to the tune of RM30,000 a month, an amount well beyond the projected budget of the centre. In view of the alarming inadequacy of the centre’s present premises in accommodating the children and catering them with a more roomy living space, the centre now embarks on a zealous campaign to raise fund and provide aid for the children’s schooling, health- and medical-care, and other needs, as well as to construct a building that the children of the centre could call “home”, one that could eventually offer them a better, healthier, happier, and more positive living environment for their growing up.

HaiYun with all its care and compassion for good causes has devoted itself to organizing the fund-raising Charity Carnival called 《海韵献爱心,温情满天下》, which is aimed at helping the handicapped children and giving them hope, allowing them to also embrace a positive outlook in life. All proceeds collected from the Charity Carnival will go to Persatuan Penjagaan Kanak-Kanak Cacat Klang Selangor as the sole beneficiary.

Rose Chan, who came to know this Charity Carnival and its organizer HaiYun during her previous trip to Malaysia, proposed that should her help be needed, she would give her all-out support.

Subsequently, Rose Chan with her immense passion was appointed the indisputable ambassador of charity for the event. In an effort to update herself on the latest development, she has made several phone-calls from Hong Kong to check on the well-fare of the children in the centre. Her request to meet the children and find out more about their needs eventually materialized this September.

Apart from sharing an early celebration of Moon Cake Festival with the children, she also pampered them with lots of cute-looking moon cakes and various goodies that she brought from Hong Kong. Rose Chan’s earnest love for the children has earned the adoration and admiration from all of us here in appointing her as the ambassador of charity for this event organized by HaiYun.

In an effort to increase the publicity for this coming event, Rose Chan will lead some 100 pupils from SRJK (C) Kwong Hon to present the martial art performance called Xiaoniantou, or “the little idea”, which is a special set of Yungchun techniques.

Apart from giving his full backing for the event, the Vice President for the primary school’s board of directors, Datuk Seri Yip Chee Kiong, is also the master coach who trains the pupils on the martial art movements. Presently, the pupils are doubling up their training efforts to turn the performance into the highest benchmark, hoping that it will attract a greater awareness, an impressive turnout, and more donations to make the fund-raising Charity Carnival even more meaningful. On top of this, given the staunch support from the sponsors and enthusiastic participation of charity-sale booths, we strongly believe that the event is destined to chalk up flying colors with resounding success.

And that is not all. The fervent involvement of local artistes and their devoted support have also added another feather in the cap. In particular, Malaysian songbird and gifted songwriter Athena Beh, together with her team of college students stealing the limelight with their exciting and heartwarming repertoire of songs and dances, will play her role of contributing to the charitable cause by being the Ambassador of Publicity for this event. It goes without saying that the dynamic contingent of local artistes, including Mandy, Dave, Reno, Hau, Celine, Vick, and Serene, are set to leave an unforgettable impact and bring the keenly anticipated 2-day Charity Carnival to a grand finale passing the gospel of love and humanity.

At the same time, Didadee also makes its collaboration count by urging the general public to make SMS donation to Persatuan Penjagaan Kanak-Kanak Cacat Klang Selangor using the mobile phone. One can do this by keying in “PPKK5” or ”PPKK10” for donations of RM5 or RM10 respectively, and then send the SMS to 36113.
This event is organized by HaiYun, endorsed by Jaguar and Juice Beauty, co-sponsored by Golden Sun Club, Fruitland, Lavenza Café, Shange Cuisine Eatery, Kim Heong Restaurant, The Shirts Studio, 99 Video Lab, and BeezWorks Production, with venue provided by Tropicana City Mall and coordination from CITI INFO, and backed by SRJK (C) Kwong Hon.
