Charity visit to the Myanmar Refugee Learning Centre

The Myanmar Refugee Learning Centre (MRLC) located in Jalan Cheras was very much in the hearts of the A Level students since January this year. Knowing the plight of these 105 students and teachers, they were moved to do something about it. With this in mind they began preparation for Biz Week 4 and their visit to MRLC. The theme of the entire project was “It is great to be blessed but it is better to be a blessing”.

The A Level students put their heads together and ran a week of sales of various items and began collecting an array of food items and clothes for the children and their families. After much effort, we were able to raise RM1,400 in cash and around 45 boxes of food and personal items.

On 13 April 2013, 40 Stamford students and staff made their way to MRLC to share their love with them. It was a day filled with fun and excitement as we spent half the day with songs, dances, games and lunch. Our students’ eyes were opened to the reality and plight of the refugees from Myanmar and their journey towards a better life. After our visit to MRLC, we then made our way to three homes where we presented the families with gifts.

Many hearts were touched by this event and their lives were changed forever.
It was a day of forgetting ourselves and loving those who needed to be loved and blessing those who desired to be blessed. The purpose of the entire trip was to help people understand that we should use our lives to touch others and in the process be touched as well. It is great to be blessed but it is better to be a blessing.
