Donation Appeal Drive BY MITTA Members

Dear Members,

Greetings from Malaysian Indian Tour and Travel Association !

Hope all of you are safe and sound during this pandemic. 🙏

We received a call this morning from Mrs. Sarah Thomas, Caretaker of Malaysia Lotus Charity Care Centre located at Semenyih appealing for MITTA’s assistance in providing them with basic provisions and groceries for their carecentre.

As they are running out of the food supply which now would only last  for next 3 days, they are making this sincere appeal.

Due to MCO enforcement, they are having difficulties to get donors to supply them with these basic needs.

There are  26 children, 25 adults and 8 caretakers including cancer patients as occupants of this home.

 We fully understand the difficulties that every one of us are going through during this unexpected situation which is taking a toll on all of us.

However, MITTA would like to seek your kind and generous voluntary contribution from our respectful members to assist Mrs.Sarah and her counterpart in managing the household without much hindrance for time being.

We would like to start this "Donation Drive" today starting with our own members.

Let us show our solidatory in helping out these needy people during this arduous journey.
Those whose wish to contribute may please do so as per the details below :

A/C Name : Malaysian Indian Tour & Travel Association
A/C No : 8000 231477
Bank : CIMB

Kindly whatsapp your deposit slip for us to issue the receipt.

Once again , Our sincere gratitude to all of you for your kind contribution and support, be it in any affordable amount.

NB: We attach the NameCard , voice message and a video of the home.

8 April 2020

Dear Members,

Greetings and well wishes once again ! 🙏

We are very grateful to all of you for your participation in this noble cause as It only took a day to get this whole drive organised on 6 April 2020.
Your persistent contribution and kindness shown was overwhelming which was received positively even in a crisis situation of this nature.

To all our amazing donors , who without any hesitation , came forward , who made this charity drive possible, on behalf of President & Exco, I say a big thank you 🙏 for your generosity.

To our Exco member  who took the lead to make the arrangements for the purchases and its safe  delivery along with her team, Mdm.Sandra, we say thank you too.

As the donations are still coming in, we would like you to know the current fund's status and its utilisation. In assisting this charity home and others too,  we would like to keep you posted and updated.

We have received to date:-
Total collections- RM 6403.00
Costs of provisions and groceries.    - RM 1848.10
(after discount given)
Balance in Bank - RM 4554.90.
 
NB: The groceries purchased would only last for about 14 days.
We could not purchase more because of its non- availability e.g. special milk powder for the cancer persons etc. Very limited.

We will however continue to monitor and replenish their stocks by making sure the 2nd. and subsequent purchases are carried out accordingly after checking with the home's caretaker from time to time (limited stock on the shelves for some essentials).

Once again,  we wish to thank each and every member for standing together and showing  your solidatory without any reservations.

NB: We attach herewith the bills for the groceries purchased yesterday,  delivery and acknowledgement photos etc by Mrs.Sarah, Lotus Charity Home.
