Over the years, Universal Peak Sdn. Bhd. has been committed to upholding its Corporate Social Responsibility. On 5th November 2022, employees and family members of Universal Peak Sdn Bhd visited Pusat Jagaan Kanak-Kanak Ekliptik Klang located at Klang as part of the company’s effort to give back to the society who are in need. Pusat Jagaan Kanak- Kanak Ekliptik Klang was first established in 1994. The welfare centre located in Kampung Raja Uda, Klang, Selangor, tends to 55 special needs children. The head of the welfare centre – Mr Morgun assisted by two other volunteer teachers and an assistant. Mr Morgun mentioned that the monthly expenses of the welfare centre are about RM 54,000 where it covers the costs for rental, utility bills, food, home maintenance, special school fees and wages for staff. Currently, the orphanage requires daily grocery items, personal hygiene items and cash to pay for utilities and daily expenses.
During our visit, staff joined in for fun activities with the children. Children from Pusat Jagaan Kanak-Kanak Ekliptik Klang were fun, and loving and even prepared exciting dance performances for all. Our staff joined and cheered them throughout the day for their energetic performances. To ease their finances, a cash donation of RM 1,000 was given to the head of the welfare centre Mr Morgun by UP’s Managing Director, Ir. Raj Kumar R. Gopal Pillai. Our sister company, Total Power Solutions Sdn. Bhd. also showed their support by matching the cash donation to them. As Deepavali festive session was around the corner, we also took the opportunity to provide lunch for the children of the welfare centre.
At UP, all of our CSR initiatives are aligned with our core values of taking ownership and responsibility to give back to the community we serve. We acknowledge that it is the responsibility of everyone to make it a reality, and together we can do so much more to the community we serve.. We wish to cultivate a culture of helping others in need among our employees, and also to keep reminding ourselves to be grateful and lend a helping hand whenever we can.
