This year, our annual Christmas party with the orphanage will be the most memorable. The home has changed its name from ‘Pertubuhan Kebajikan Kanak-Kanak Selangor’ to ‘The Little Yellow Stars’ in conjunction with this also the official launching of the new extension bedrooms, new bathrooms and food storage area. Taking this opportunity during this festive season we had put up a heart-warming and joyous party at the home. The festive spirit was in the air as we gathered to celebrate the season of giving and togetherness with the children and caretaker of the orphanage. The organising team headed to the home earlier to setup the decorations, setting up food and gifts tables. Volunteers and children alike adorned the space with twinkling lights, colourful ornaments, and 2 magnificent Christmas trees that stood as the entrance of their home. The atmosphere was filled with laughter, holiday music, and the excited chatter of the children. The event was special that we have the Taiwan District Kiwanians visiting as well. As all arrived, we kicked off with our Santa riding down the road with his huge beautiful motorbike coming in greeting the children. While Santa is busy chatting with everyone, we have the meals given out to the children. By request they had McDonald’s value meal sets for their lunch and as for desserts we have some ice cream sticks, apple strudel and also some chocolates. The children enjoyed the meal with glee, their faces lighting up with every bite. After the meal, the children queued in line to collect their presents, then entertainment began.  They gathered round to play games and more gifts were given. There were performances by the children, who sang Christmas carols that brought smiles to everyone's faces. We also took some time taking a tour of the home with our Taiwan delegates, showing them the new bedrooms and bathrooms that we have built for the children. We also look at the new food storage area where the racking is sponsored by Hyperack, appreciate their contribution. As the event came to a close, it was evident that the day had been a resounding success. The children were beaming with happiness, and the volunteers were filled with a sense of fulfilment and gratitude for the opportunity to bring joy to these young lives. Our annual Christmas party with the orphanage is more than just a celebration; it is a reminder of the importance of community, kindness, and the spirit of giving. We look forward to continuing this cherished tradition for many years to come, creating lasting memories and spreading love during the festive season.
