FOLLOW ME BUY & DONATE CAMPAIGN 2016
RAISE FUNDS FOR RUMAH CARING OLD FOLKS HOME

Follow Me, a brand under Tohtonku Sdn Bhd has launched the Follow Me Buy & Donate Campaign 2016 that is currently ongoing from 20 October 2016 until 30 November 2016 to help raise funds for Rumah Caring Old Folks Home.

 Located in Kajang, Selangor, this non-profit old folks home, caters not only to citizens aged between 50 years to 95 years, but it also shelters wheel chair bound old folks who require special needs and attention.

According to Wendy Yap, Founder of Persatuan Rumah Caring Kajang, the home has been grappling with the rising cost of operations and provisions in the last few years. Apart from the daily basic household needs, nursing service and cost of health supplies are also increasing.

“The average cost of running the home is about RM14,000 a month. We are left feeling helpless at times without financial aid. Therefore, we are really grateful to receive donations from corporate and individual donors,” said founder, Wendy Yap.

Through this campaign, Follow Me hopes to raise funds through the sale of any of its Follow Me products, where with every RM10 spent on Follow Me products, RM1 will be donated to the Follow Me Buy & Donate Campaign fund. The funding will be used to help fund the household expenditure of the Rumah Caring Old Folks Home.


“We are indeed moved by the fact that despite of the funding issues and uncertainties that looms over the shelter; this has never been taken as an excuse to compromise on the love and care the old folks deserve. As a well-established home grown brand in Malaysia, we feel compelled to do our bit to contribute back to the society. I sincerely hope that this campaign would garner support from the public and together we can help raise funds to provide better nursing, health and logistic care to the old folks and disabilities here in Rumah Caring Kajang,” said Jessky Hah, Product Manager of Follow Me.     


The public who would like to support this campaign can head to any Tesco retail outlets in Malaysia to purchase their preferred Follow Me products. Follow Me products ranged from haircare, skincare to body care.

About Persatuan Rumah Caring Kajang Selangor
Persatuan Rumah Caring Kajang Selangor was established in May 2004 by social worker Wendy Yap who has worked relentlessly over the past 20 years to improve the lives of underprivileged persons in the society. It is a non-profit organization looking into the welfare of the needy.
The association currently runs Rumah Caring, an old folks home in Kajang where 28 senior citizens spend their golden years, as well as a drug centre that has helped more than 3,000 addicts over the years. Apart from that, it ministers to single mothers and their children, helping them to be independent again through financial and emotional support. It is also heartening to note that many of these children have grown up to be high-flyers. Till date, about 100 families of single parent are under its care.
Your support is very much needed for the association to continue serving the community. We look forward to your involvement in not only giving us financial assistance, but also any donation in kind that you think may bring joy and solace to persons under the association's care. We welcome you to visit the old folks or bring the children out for short trips.

A Good Catch at Sek 17, PJ

If you love steam fish, this place is for you! Located at the other end of the mamak (nearby Seventeen Mall), this place is a hit especially for those who love healthy and simple food.  Mom and dad first discovered this place and finally took me here for dinner one day and I fell in love with its simple dishes. Address: 1270-1271, Jalan 17/31, Seksyen 17, 46400 Petaling Jaya, Selangor Their menu is not fancy with many choices but good enough for a decent healthy dinner. They open as early as 5pm. Be there early to beat the hungry crowd.  My recommendation would be their Steamed Leopard Coral Goruper and Steamed Dragon Goruper. Sometimes these fish can go out of stock if you go too late. My first visit was at 8.30pm. It was still crowded but not that much as compared to my second visit at 7.30pm on another day. I had to walk off cause there were just too many tables unfed. Lesson learnt! Go earlier to beat the crowd. The crowd at 6pm. This was the first f...

Baan Thai 2 Seafood Restaurant at Kuchai Lama

Not Halal I recently discovered a new place to dine authentic Thai Food at Jalan Kuchai Lama when my mom's friend took her to celebrate her birthday this year. This is their second outlet and it's only 3 months old. Their first outlet, Baan Thai is located in Cheras. It was indeed an eye opener. Upon stepping in the restaurant, I was dumbfounded! The size of the restaurant was huge and there was massive space. It somehow felt like dining in one of those restaurants in China where there was so much space!  pic from Baan Thai 2 facebook page The best part was, not only the food is deliciously good, but the ambience is just breathtaking. They have ample manpower with plenty of staff attending to customer's needs. Diners were treated to a beautifully landscaped pond as they dine at Baan Thai 2 Seafood Restaurant. Look! There is even a ship on display at the end of the mini pond.  The ship is as tall as me! What a view! Smacked in the middle of...
