Malam Amal jointly organised with Justice of Peace Selangor and LC George Town Mutiara. LC PJ Metro, LC Subang Jaya, LC Bandar Baru Klang and LC Banting held at Kelab Shah Alam on 7 March 2015 attended by Z16C Jessie Ng and Secretary Irene Hoi.

The Lions Club of Petaling Jaya Mutiara and Club Branch Petaling Jaya Central jointly organized a Chinese New Year Luncheon for 160 senior citizens and children from 9 homes namely Œ 20 pax House of Joy, 30 pax Rumah Victory. 30 pax Rumah Charis, 20 pax Rumah Kanak-Kanak Angel, 10 pax Rumah Cempaka, 10 pax Little Sisters of the Poor, 10 pax Bodhi Homecare, 10 pax Persatuan Rumah Caring and ” 20 pax Loving Nursing Home. The lunch was held on Sunday, 8 March 2015 at Restoran 88, 15 Jalan Batalong, Continental Park, Off Jalan Kuchai Lama, Kuala Lumpur from 11.30am to 3.00pm.

The event started with the performance by a pair of red and gold Lion, the dance troupe from Xu Yang Lion that went round from table to table ‘greeting’ the senior citizens and children. It was an exciting start to a sumptuous 8-course lunch served by the efficient staffs of Restoran 88.

The highlight of the afternoon was the distribution of angpows. The senior citizens and children had a “fund-erful” afternoon receiving so many angpows courtesy of the many donors that had generously contributed to the event. In addition to the lunch, the senior citizens and children were entertained to Chinese New Year songs by the clubs’ members. Albeit a small stage, all had a wonderful time singing and dancing on the stage joined in by a senior who loves dancing and some children.

It is very pleasing to see the happy faces of the senior citizens and children as the members bade them farewell after the event. The two clubs look forward to organizing a similar event next year and many more years to come.
