Gibraltar BSN Donates Therapy Cabin for SHELTER Home for Children

Gibraltar BSN Life Berhad (“Gibraltar BSN”), Malaysia’s Community Protection Champion, recently donated a cabin that will be used to hold therapy sessions for abused and neglected kids placed at a SHELTER Home 3 in Petaling Jaya.

Started off in 1981 by a group of seven friends, SHELTER Home for Children houses and rehabilitates abused, abandoned, neglected or at-risk children around the Klang Valley. Amongst their three homes in Petaling Jaya, only ‘Shelter Home 3’ did not have a spare room for one-on-one therapy, which was why Gibraltar BSN decided to commission the building of a therapy cabin for the children.

President and Chief Executive Officer at Gibraltar BSN Life Berhad, Rangam Bir said, “We believe that each and every child has the right to good health and well-being which is one of the United Nations’ Sustainable Goals, and this is why we chose to support SHELTER Home this year. We are proud to rise and meet the needs of the community that we operate in by providing the therapy cabin that will make a real difference in the lives of these young children.”

The event saw 20 volunteers from Gibraltar BSN, along with President and CEO Rangam Bir, painting the therapy cabin, planting greenery surrounding it to promote serenity, and playing a friendly futsal match with the children to promote an active lifestyle.

To further complement Gibraltar BSN’s CSR initiative, lunch for the volunteers and children were catered from The Picha Project, a social enterprise which aims to empower refugees in Malaysia through a sustainable food catering and delivery business.
