NEW READING SPACE ALERT! | KCV x BFBW x MENARA ALFA 🚀 Yesterday, we quietly opened our 4th collaboration between Kiwanis Club of Visionaries (KCV) and Books For A Better World Sdn Bhd For A Better World (BFBW)… this time at Menara Alfa, Bangsar. Another cosy corner for the community to discover books, relax, and just breathe a little — all powered by the simple belief that every book deserves a second life, and every person deserves access to stories. Huge thank you to Menara Alfa for partnering with us to make this beautiful reading space a reality. This space is fully self-service, trust-based, and supports BFBW’s literacy mission, where every book purchased helps fund programmes for children and underserved communities. To my amazing KCV team: once again, we did it. One space at a time, we are building a more literate, connected and compassionate Malaysia. If you’re around Bangsar, come visit. Sit, read, recharge. And if you spot me there… I’m probably rearranging books again. 😅

This month marks a first for Kiwanis Club of Visionaries (KCV)! For the first time ever, our monthly networking session was held at a restaurant, and not just any restaurant… we decided to go a bit ‘atas’ and ended up at Gordon Ramsay Bar & Grill! Big shout-out to our new member Jennifer for handling all the arrangements (including the AV system — because even Gordon Ramsay needs proper sound when Kiwanis takes over 😜). As usual, Queen Crystal ruled the mic as our ever-charismatic emcee 👑, while Marilyn, Peggy, Linda, Agnes, Phoebe, Katherine, CJ and Jaime were my amazing helper team, keeping things running smoother than a Gordon soufflé! It was such a joy meeting Matthias, Amanda, Dr. Andrea Chow, Janice, shirley, Jaime Fong and Zachary in person for the first time — and special thanks to Tan Sri Wesley, Kamae, Aimee and Joseph for joining us too! Great food, great laughter, great people…! Next month, we’ll balance things out — how about A&W Drive-In? #KiwanisVisionaries #NetworkingWithPurpose #GordonRamsayBarAndGrill #LeadershipWithHeart #Community #GivingBack #SocialImpact #FromRamsayToRootBeer

As Kiwanis Club of Taman Tun Dr. Ismail (KITT) enters its 30th year, we reflect on a meaningful journey marked by growth, resilience, and renewed spirit. Over the decades, the club has experienced different seasons—from vibrant years filled with impactful activities and strong fellowship, to quieter phases of reduced momentum. In recent years, however, the club has seen a refreshing revival. With the involvement of new, energetic members and the continued commitment of long-standing Kiwanians, KITT is once again rising with purpose and enthusiasm. The future looks promising. In conjunction with our 30th Anniversary celebration, the club organised a Retreat from 25–26 October at Cyberview Resort. Nearly all members were present, making it a valuable and meaningful gathering. The retreat was designed with three key objectives: Education & Induction To orient and induct new members while refreshing the understanding of Kiwanis values, operations, and mission among existing members. Team Building & Fellowship To strengthen bonds, deepen trust and camaraderie, and bridge friendships between long-serving and newer members. Planning for the Future To brainstorm and develop programmes and activities that will continue to drive KITT’s impact in the coming term and beyond. The retreat served not only as a platform for planning, but also as a reminder of who we are—a community of people driven by service, compassion, and the belief that together, we can make a difference. Only in KCTTDI — where service meets heart, and fellowship feels like family. 

KCV delivered 2 cartons of brownies and some orange drinks to refugee children at the Raphael International Academy 😍
