A Christmas Feast for Dignity for Children Foundation (2019)
The Christmas 2019 holiday season saw 35 children and a teacher from the Dignity for Children Foundation invited for a Christmas Lunch at our Bangsar outlet.
Our guests-of-the-day enjoyed a delicious 3-course meal, starting with a Cream of Mushroom Soup, followed by Chicken Spaghetti Alla Siciliana, and our homemade dessert, Moist Chocolate Cake with premium vanilla ice cream.
The children had a blast decorating their very own ‘Gingerbread Man’ and each received a special Christmas present to bring back home.
The day was completed by their angelic voices performing an exclusive Christmas Carol for those who were present. It was certainly a memorable day as we got to share the joyful celebration with them.
Eat, Eradicate, Empower
On 17th October 2019, we hosted a charity dinner, jointly organised by Dignity for Children Foundation. The event, in conjunction with United Nations’ International Day for the Eradication of Poverty was held to empower more underprivileged and marginalised children to break out of the poverty cycle – and this is done through receiving quality education.
Guests were treated with our luscious 3-course meal for only RM200 per person. All proceeds from the event were channeled towards the education fees for the children studying in Dignity.
