Spreading joy and cheer to unprivileged families

KUCHING: Following the enchanting Christmas tree lighting ceremony of ‘Wonkaful Christmas’ at The Spring Shopping Mall, the festivities continue to unfold with a heart-warming corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative titled ‘The Sweetness of Giving’.

In collaborating with Hope Place Kuching and in the celebrating the NGO’s 10th anniversary, the Spring together with PE Holdings, spread the magic of the season by organising a special day out for 24 underprivileged families with more than 70 children, aged between four and 17 last weekend.

Out of these 24 unprivileged families, 20 families are of single parents with young and schooling kids, all under the care and support of Hope Place.

During the event, families were treated to a delightful Christmas buffet spread sponsored by The Spring FoodBazaar.

Additionally, each child walked home with a goodie bags filled with treats and vouchers to redeem sweet delights from Aqua S & Beez Gelato, while parents received a dessert box from Taka Patisserie.

Ta Kiong supermarket also joined in the spirit of giving by generously sponsoring a care package for all the families.

This charitable endeavour not only provides a day of joy but also reflects The Spring’s commitment to give back to the community.

‘The Sweetness of Giving’ event treated 75 under privileged children to a memorable day out in the mall, creating lasting memories and fostering a sense of togetherness during this festive season.

The younger participants, aged four to 10, participated in a tea-riffic adventure as they enjoyed A Wonkaful Tea Party.

During the event, the little ones participated in exciting games with the opportunity to win prizes sponsored by PE Holdings.

Simultaneously, the older children, aged 11 to 17, were treated to an exclusive movie experience at Golden Screen Cinema (GSC) with their parents.

‘The Sweetness of Giving’ campaign aligns with The Spring dedication to CSR and underscores the importance of spreading kindness and joy during the Christmas season.

By partnering with Hope Place, the mall aims to make a meaningful impact on the life of these children and their families.
