Grant A Wish, an annual CSR programme organised by Keppel and Saigon Centre, is a powerful initiative that ignites hope in the lives of underprivileged children and seniors during Christmas. The outpouring of love and compassion for Grant A Wish this year was nothing short of incredible thanks to the overwhelming support and boundless generosity of over 280 donors and volunteers.
We received a total of 238 wishes from the beneficiaries at Thien Binh Orphanage and Mai Tam Shelter. These wishes translated into 238 gifts that would make an unforgettable bliss for many people in the festive season. Since November 30, Keppel has been actively calling for donations, and we are immensely grateful for the precious contributions received from our staff, tenants, shopping mall visitors, and the community at large.
On December 19, a dedicated team of Keppel volunteers joined hands to wrap these heartfelt gifts, infusing each one with love and care. The excitement was palpable as we prepared to present the gifts to the two shelters on December 22. But it wasn't just about the gifts, it was about creating an atmosphere of love and celebration. Fun Christmas games filled the air with laughter and joy, reminding everyone of the true spirit of Christmas.
The expressions of joy and gratitude from the children and seniors at Thien Binh Orphanage and Mai Tam Shelter were truly heartwarming. We realised the immense power of Grant A Wish to bring hope, happiness, and a sense of belonging to those who often feel forgotten.
We would like to extend our deepest appreciation and gratitude to all the donors and volunteers who wholeheartedly supported Grant A Wish over the years. Your generosity and selflessness have made this programme a resounding success. We are humbled by your unwavering support and are immensely grateful for your continued accompany as we embark on future CSR programmes. Together, we can create a ripple effect of kindness and transform lives.
Grant A Wish has become a beacon of hope, igniting the spirit of giving and inspiring change in our community. Through the collective efforts of donors and volunteers, we have witnessed the profound impact that a small act of kindness can have on the lives of those in need. As we reflect on Grant A Wish 2023’s success, we are filled with renewed determination to continue building a better world where every wish is granted, and every heart is filled with love and happiness.
