“Bringing Seeds of Hope for a New Beginning.”

One of our signature projects, the Golden Child initiative has been held for more than 25 years for the benefit of about 30 terminally-ill children below 12 years old. The children are invited from three separate medical centres namely Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL), Hospital Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) and Pusat Perubatan Universiti Malaya (PPUM), accompanied by several doctors, nurses and parents and guardians for a three days and two nights stay at A’Famosa Melaka hosted by our local sister club, the Rotary Club of Tampin.

As these children have complex health needs and are mostly confined to their hospital wards or homes and rarely have a chance to participate outdoor activities, this annual programme is all about them experiencing various fun activities and adventures, ultimately bringing cheers and joys to these special children.

This programme has been strongly supported by A’Famosa, the Rotary Club of Tampin, the Rotary Club of Makati West, Philippines, the Rotary Club of Hong Kong Island and the Rotary Club of Ichihara, Japan.
