On the 25 MAR 2024, we had the opportunity to attend a gathering hosted by Kiwanis Bukit Jalil at Wayne's Bistro, Old Klang Road. We were graced by a guest speaker Robin Handleman, who hails all the way from U.S.A. We were all inspired by her passion and vigour, for a 70+ her energy was simply contagious. She had us singing, dancing and clapping. We've never been more entertained and humbled by this international volunteer. We are also especially proud of our Circle K sponsored club from KYUEM who drove for more than 2 hours to listen Robin. We all left feeling inspired to do everything with love and be affirmative in our speech and actions. Thank you, Robin and Kiwanis Bukit Jalil for the stimulating night! #KiwanisBukitJalil #KiwanisTTDI #Kiwanis #JoinKiwanis #OneTeamOneDream #PositiveVibes #SpreadLove
