With Chinese New Year around the corner, Tzu Chi KL & Selangor organised a Near Year distribution cum Year-End Blessing event for its Chinese care recipients, showering them with the warmth of humanity.

“During the time when I was at the hospital, alone and not knowing the fate of my wife, the visits from Tzu Chi volunteers brought me peace and strength,” said a grateful survivor.

Despite feeling exhausted from daily chores and taking care of her bedridden mother and seven children, Sitrah believes that education is key to helping her children distinguish right from wrong and break free from poverty.

“I have a coin bank in my closet that I want to donate to Tzu Chi. The volunteers have not come for two years. Before my partner’s demise, he told me to donate RM10 monthly. I now owe Tzu Chi RM240 over the past two years. Please remember to hand over the RM240 to Tzu Chi after I depart this life…” – Heng Bak Nam

Upon receiving the news that Klang was severely hit by floods, Tzu Chi Klang sent a relief team to the scene, distributing hot meals and calming the devastated victims.
