Donate a Book, Share a Story

News from Kiwanis Klang

Description

Greetings!
I am excited to share with you an opportunity to make a meaningful impact this Christmas through the “Donate a Book, Share a Story” campaign. Now in its 3rd year, this initiative is organized by Books For A Better World (BFBW) in partnership with the Kiwanis Club of Taman Tun Dr Ismail (KCTTDI) to provide books to children from underprivileged backgrounds.
I would like to invite you and/or your organization to participate by purchasing boxes of books from BFBW to be donated to these children. Each box contains 10 gift-wrapped books and costs only RM100 per box. Your contribution will help bring the joy of reading to the kids we support through Kiwanis.
Together, let’s make this Christmas special for the children in need. Thank you for your generosity and for supporting a cause that brings joy and education to those who need it most.
How many boxes would you be inspired to contribute to make this holiday season brighter for these children?
Best regards,

Adrian Ung

Service is strongest when partnerships come together

Service is strongest when partnerships come together. The Kiwanis Club of Visionaries is honoured to collaborate with Books For A Better World (BFBW) and Gains Global (Bauli Malaysia) to turn excess food stock into meaningful community impact. When Gains Global reached out to donate their surplus items, we worked together to ensure these treats reached communities that would truly appreciate them. Together, we distributed the donated goodies to: 🏫 Raphael Academy – bringing smiles and excitement to the children 🏡 En Yuan Old Folks Home – sharing warmth and cheer with our senior citizens This collaboration reflects what Kiwanis is all about — serving the community, reducing wastage, and creating positive change through teamwork.

PONGGAL 202617 Jan 266Klang

PONGGAL 2026

🌾 Celebrating Ponggal with Heart and Heritage 🌾 This year, we were honored to join the Apex Club of Klang and MYKITA in celebrating the vibrant Pongal festival at MYKITA Hostel, Kerling. PonGgal, the cherished Tamil harvest festival, is a time of gratitude, tradition, and togetherness. It was especially meaningful to reconnect with the boys we met during last year’s GGAC 2025 Youth Camp in Mantin, young hearts who remembered us fondly and welcomed us with joy. Many of these children are orphans, growing up without parental care, yet deeply loved by those who nurture them. Their resilience shines through as they are top scholars, talented athletes, and some even represent their state in sports. We began the day with a heartfelt prayer for health and prosperity, followed by the creation of beautiful rice based kolam artwork. The ceremonial cooking of Ponggal, a dish symbolizing abundance, made by boiling rice with milk and jaggery reminded us of the festival’s essence “boiling over” with blessings. The celebration came alive with spirited performances of Kalaripayat and Silambam, showcasing the children’s discipline, pride, and cultural heritage. In line with the Kiwanis motto "Serving the children of the world", we donated three laptops, hoping they will empower these bright young minds on their journey toward excellence. Grateful for the opportunity to share this day of joy, tradition, and connection. Nandri Vanakkam
