GUARDIAN GIVES BACK TO SOCIETY DURING FESTIVE SEASON

Guardian Malaysia recently organised several charity programmes to bring some
cheer to the unfortunate during this year-end festive season.

Jennifer Wong, Senior Manager, Corporate Affairs and Event, Guardian Health And
Beauty Sdn Bhd said:

“At Guardian, we always strive to give something back to the society we operate in.
At the end of the year, during the festive and holiday season, when most people are
with their families, some are not so fortunate not to do so. Hence we feel that it is a
very appropriate time to do it.”

Recently Guardian Malaysia treated 55 children from Pertubuhan Kebajikan Anak
Yatim Mary KL, a registered Home with the Welfare Department run with donations
from the public. It is a foster Home for children from poor families, dysfunctional
families, single parents and orphans

The 55 children were given the opportunity to shop for whatever they want at the
recently remodeled Guardian store at Berjaya Times Square and each received
presents including tokidoki cuddly toys.

Karyll Chee, a Guardian’s Face of Healthy Beauty winner was present to spend time
with the children at the Guardian store.

She said she was so happy that Guardian, in this season of giving, had given the
children the opportunity to shop for what they wanted and to experience the
pleasure of shopping.

“Seeing their happy faces really makes me feeling so grateful and blessed with what
I have,” she added.

In Kuching, Sarawak, Guardian had also worked with The Spring shopping mall
Kuching and Bintulu to deliver more than RM9000 worth of daily necessities for
Sarawak’s Children Cancer Society and Extrameal Bintulu. Guardian also visited
some children from Sarawak’s Children Cancer Society who are being treated at
Kuching’s General Hospital where they were given tokidoki plush toys to bring cheer
to them.

Additionally, Guardian customers also personally contributed their own cheer to the
needy by buying products at the Guardian store at The Spring Shopping Mall in
Kuching and Bintulu and dropping them off at the cashier counters to be delivered
to Hope Place Kuching, The Salvation Army and Extrameal Bintulu. This campaign
for The Spring Kuching ended on 18 December while for The Spring Bintulu, it will end
on 20 December 2019. These products will be collected and distributed to these
charity organisations at the end of December 2019.

Guardian Malaysia, the leader in health and beauty retaining, is marking its 50th anniversary with a RM250,000 community project to upgrade the facilities of 10 charity homes in the country.
Thanks to Guardian Malaysia for inviting me to visit one of the charity homes at Kuala Lumpur.

These homes, seven of which are orphanages, are located near to Guardian outlets in various parts of the country. Most of them have requested for repairs, upgrading and refurbishment of living quarters.

In addition to a budget of RM250,000, Guardian Malaysia has also encouraged its staff to volunteer their time to help in the improvement works, and to spend some quality time with the children.

Mr. Lauridsen said: 'Each year, as we celebrate our anniversary, we make it a point to reach out to those in need. Over the years, Guardian has been extending aid and assistance through various forms. Often its financial contributions, other times, its donation in kind and through fun and cheer. This year, as Guardian Malaysia is celebrating our 50th anniversary, we decided to extend greater support to those living close to where we operate."

"We asked our teams at the stores to recommend charity homes in their neighbourhood which needed repairs or improvements, but were short of funds. We picked 10 homes where we see our contributors as making a meaningful difference."

"By helping to improve the living quarters of these children, orphans and the elderly, we believe we are empowering them to be more confident and eventually become self-sufficient." Mr. Lauridsen added.
