Time well spent at PPKKCTM

Shah Alam, Malaysia - Jadi Imaging Technologies Sdn Bhd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jadi Imaging Holdings Berhad, organized a charitable visit to Pusat Penjagaan Kanak Kanak Cacat Taman Megah (PPKKCTM) on 24th July 2010. The visit involved volunteers from Jadi comprising of staff, friends and families.


PPKKCTM is a non-profit home for the disabled and underprivileged in Taman Megah, Petaling Jaya, Selangor. PPKKCTM was founded by the venerable late Mr. Manikumar A/L S. Kanan, a physically handicapped man with the vision of providing better environment for disabled children to live in and also to highlight their plight to give the children an equal opportunity in society. The centre houses children of all races from all over Peninsular Malaysia. Some of these children are diagnosed with various disabilities ranging from Fown Syndrome, Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Global Delay, Muscular Dystrophy, Dwarfism, Apeth Syndrome, Neunan Syndrome and Hyperactivity, among others. Besides that, the centre is also home to normal children from broken and abused families.

During the visit, Jadi's volunteers entertained the children with fun games, live musical performance and spectacular magic show. Visiting these children to see them smile and laugh makes this visit even more worthwhile than making mere financial contributions. Besides spending time at the centre to accompany the children, Jadi provided some stationery materials to the children and offered to recycle the centre's laser cartridges to help it save cost on printing supplies. The charitable visit will not be the last for Jadi as it seeks to be more pro-active in its effort to contribute towards the betterment of society.
