A total sum of RM1619 was collected to buy clothes for 17 boys. The clothes for the girls had already been sponsored by one kind lady who owns a boutique.
In the above pictures, you can see the boys choosing their new clothings with the help of the teachers who came along. The group photographs were taken at the Complex where the children are housed.
One of readers, Annie, mentioned that she liked to do something memorable on special dates. Well, for me helping underprivileged children to buy festive clothings on the Independance Day of my country is an activity that is both memorable and also very meaningful. Don't you agree?

i agree, 100%. with all the incidents that have scarred the very bulan kemerdekaan, reading your story really gives me hope. =D
keep up the good work, i pray that i'm not gonna be the only one inspired.
Don't worry Danial, you are not the only one inspired by my story. The first year I did this, I fasted for one whole week and my friends gave me RM10 each. I think I managed to get about RM700 or RM800 then. At that time Ustaz only had about 10 orphans under his care. Now he has about 57. so my friends just gave me the money. My principal was really inspired by my story and she praised me during assembly.
