VISITING OLD FOLKS HOMES AND ORPHANAGES

Gong Xi Fa Cai to everybody who is reading this blog...I am truly excited that many people out there are a caring lot. As I can see from my sitemeter, people logged in to find out the locations of the Old Folks Homes and Orphanages, I am sure most of them were checking out the places to visit during these auspicious days to share the joy of new year with the less fortunate.

Keep it up friends, please spread your LOVE, tell the people around you that the Less Fortunate Ones are waiting for your visit. They don't mind if there are no Ang Pows, but rather your mere presence with some New Year cookies and mandarine oranges are the best gifts. All they want is your care and love.

Hi Jackson and anonymous,

I have encountered some problems with my blog and the reply to your comments earlier was not published, and the blog was missing from the site...finally got it back now, wheww..

ok, I suggest that if you are doing charity work on your own, why not enrol yourself to the local organisations such as: Mercy Malaysia, The Red Crescent, World Vision Malaysia, T-Ratana, Tzu Chi Malaysia, etc. They have a lot of programs visiting homes and helping out the needies and they need volunteers like you, pls approach any of them, they will be more than happy to receive your help! May God Bless you both always.

Dear Swiss Palma:

Hello.. This is the first time i am reading your blog and i am really taken back. Now i know there are still people who care for others and the less fortunates. I have always wanted to help.
I have a chindian group... A group where most of them in our group are mixtures of chinese and indians parents. We have thought that instead of being just a group tat loves to meet and have fun, we want to start to make a change to others too..and your blog has really inspired me a lot. We all would love to join you during the next visits.
Thank you so much.
