Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri maaf zahir &batin

EID MUBARAK, commonly known as Hari Raya Aidil Fitri is a joyous time for Muslims around the world as it marks the end of Ramadan. Once again this year the Club has identified 10 underprivileged families to bring cheers to and lessen their burden this festive occasion.

On Saturday, 28 August 2010, the members led by Project Head, PP Sheila Adenan met at Ting & Ting Supermarket to “car pool” and to ferry the goodies in the 2 cars, driven by Lion Vincent Tan and PP Juriah Sulehan. The 2 locations were at Kampung Gita Tengah (2 families), Kampung Gita Laut, Kampung Gita Lama and Kampung Bintawa Ulu (4 families).

On Friday, 3 September 2010, PP Sheila Adenan on her monthly working trip to Roban, stopped by in Saratok to distribute 2 more Raya hampers and “duit raya” to 70+ Encik Bujang bin Tahir and Encik Tahir bin Tar. Since Encik Tahir was not able to meet us, we left the goods in the good hands of Encik Bujang to hand over to him the next morning.
