Charity Project


Originated from Singapore BB, the 2nd Sandakan Boys’ Brigade Company will be the first company in Malaysia doing such a project. This charity project is to help the targeted group of children have their dream come true by giving them small Christmas presents.

Currently, we have been targeting the Agape Centre kids. They are mostly mentally disabled and the Agape Centre is where they learn their basic everyday life skills in order to survive in the society. The NCO’s in charge will be those of the rank Lance Corporal and Corporal only.

A rough schedule has been made and it goes like this:

The project will start in the 2nd week of November, where the company will be looking for sponsor in order to ensure this project a successful one. At the same time, another group of boys will be decorating a Christmas trees with dangling envelops, which enables the children to write their Christmas wishes. In early December, the boys will go back and collect the envelops, leaving the Christmas trees there. Then, the Boys will try their best to fulfill the children's wishes. Sources of funds are the Church members, the Boys' parents, and sponsors from different corporations. By the 3rd week of December, the presents should all be prepared and the Boys will once again go back to the centre and place the presents underneath the Christmas tree. At 25th December, the boys will return to the centre and celebrate Christmas with the boys.

This project is going to be a very meaningful one. Though the less-gifted Agape are mentally disabled, they still deserve a chance to lead a healthy and happy life. However, resources, including man-power and financial are limited. The 2nd Sandakan Boy's Brigade company sincerely needs support from people of all walks of life to contribute in this project.
