As part of the Henry Goh’s annual corporate social responsibility projects, a team of 20 staff visited the Selangor King George V Silver Jubilee Home on 5 November 2011. Established since 1937, the home has a long history of caring for many poor and homeless women in their golden years. The home currently has 29 residents, aged 69 to 96. Silver Jubilee Home is situated in a basic but lush environment in the middle of the city.

The People of Henry Goh contributed groceries and monetary gifts. At the home, we spent quality time chatting with the old ladies and listening to their interesting stories from yonder. The senior ladies were also entertained by our talented staff who danced and sang. A scrumptious buffet lunch was served before presenting the residents with goodie bags and ang pows. Our Managing Director presented a cheque to the home as an encouragement to the home’s management to continue their caring efforts. More than any material contribution, the golden girls of Jubilee Home valued the time we spent with them; as evident from the toothless but genuine beautiful smiles on their faces.
