ROSE Charities Malaysia (RCM) and Pertubuhan Wanita Mutiara Pulau Pinang (PWMPP) have come together to feed those who are in need through their ‘Feed the B40’ programme.
According to RCM president Datuk Lawrence Cheah, a total of 100 packets of ‘bihun goreng’ was prepared to be distributed at the Kebun Bunga and Pulau Tikus neighbourhoods.
“The Kebun Bunga and Pulau Tikus service centre teams will be collecting and distributing the meals to the needy in the respective constituencies.
“We are starting programme in Kebun Bunga and Pulau Tikus first.
“We will carry out the programme in other constituencies after that,” Cheah said during the launch of the programme today.
Cheah and several volunteers prepared the meals at their premises in 21a, Codrington Avenue, Pulau Tikus.
Also present were Kebun Bunga assemblyman Jason Ong and Penang Women Chamber of Commerce (PWCC) president Datuk Annie Chin.
