What Happened !?

This phrase is quite alarming for some, yes I agree. You might asked what had APOH done for charity in 2018. Although we have been quiet for most of 2018 in blogging, we are actually in the background still working. Here is a quick run down of the two events that we did for 2018, alas mostly in pictures (a picture speaks a thousand words :-)

As always, we at APOH do not take a cent from all these events. We give it all to the NGOs concerned.

We would like to record our sincere thanks to all donors and participants that has made our charitable effort successful. The NGOs that you helped is indeed grateful but most of all, you had better their lives in some way or another, that is more treasurable!!

A special commendation to Rotary Club of Metro KL for being so supportive to us in 2018.

APOH charity events this year? Yes there are two. The first being the annual ‘A Piece Of Hope : Mt Kinabalu Charity Climb’ that is happening in just a few days time from 5 - 8 July. The second will be a Fun Run & Walk to be held at the end of November at MAEPS Serdang, details will be posted here very soon.

So, do support us as we continue to do Charity Together Helping Another

Largest Treasure Hunt in a Mall ?!

You are kidding me! No, no, no. Look at the photos below of last year's treasure hunt we had. We got more than 500 participants that walked through the mall in an effort to be the first to complete all the hunt questions.

Now we had come one full circle! The LARGEST treasure hunt in a mall is back again! As exciting or more from the last one, we are now planning it to happen on the 9th December 2018. The hunt will be at the same mall and this should be an added advantage for those who had participated in back in 2017. Easier for you? Come and find out. There will be no less adventure as more unique task and questions are planned.

As in all our events, we raise funds for NGOs. Charity is in the heart of A Piece Of Hope events and this time around we have chosen Beautiful Gate Puchong, Beautiful Gate Kepong and HH Centre. The first 2 NGOs mentioned helps disabled and mentally challenged people, whereas HH Centre which is in Ipoh helps underprivileged children. We target to raise RM40,000 through this hunt.

Those who would like to help us help these NGOs by sponsoring this hunt, please feel free to contact us at apieceofhope@gmail.com. We need all the help we can get! If you can't help in this way, come join us for the hunt and gather as many friends as possible to join in. Spaces are limited to 150 teams (4 pax maximum per team and further details are contained in the registration form).

Treasure Waiting To Be Discovered

Yes! It is a mere 2 weeks more to A Piece Of Hope : Charity Fun Adventure Hunt at Da Men Mall. All preparations are almost ripe and ready. With almost 130 teams registered to hunt, it will be the LARGEST event to date at Da Men Mall. Short to say that it is one of the BIGGEST participation in a mall for a treasure hunt. We couldn't have done it without YOU as the participants and supporters of A Piece Of Hope (APOH).

The committee has been hard at work since 3 months ago to put this 1st ever APOH Treasure Hunt event. Normally we would be climbing Mt. Kinabalu or running in the serene surroundings of MAEPS, Serdang. This would be the 4th charity event that APOH has organised so far this year and it would be the last one. No, we are not calling it quits yet but come next year, there will be more.

Anyway, the A Piece Of Hope : Charity Fun Adventure Hunt t-shirts will be ready for collection next Saturday, 11th November. Details are below:

The following are our sponsors. A very BIG THANK YOU to them for believing in us and help making this event a success.
