LOVE and attention were showered in abundance for the children of Pusat Jagaan Kanak-Kanak Nur Salam and Lighthouse Children Welfare Home Association when a group of Maxis employees visited them during its charity Christmas initiative. The children from both homes gathered at the Nur Salam Safe Home for a day of fun and sharing with the Maxis volunteers. After a round of introductions, the volunteers proceeded to decorate a seven-foot tall Christmas tree and decorate the home with Christmas ornaments.

Entertainment came in the form of a couple of dances by the children of Nur Salam, while the children from Lighthouse sang Christmas carols.

Nur Salam is a 24-hour activity centre and safehouse that aims to provide a safe, healthy and loving environment for all children under the age of 18, living or loitering, in and around the Chow Kit area.
