Our Community
As an active firm in the region, we have an impact on many local societies and economies. At Tay & Partners, we strive to make a lasting commitment to make a positive difference in these communities.
In dedicating our time and effort, we hope to do our utmost to respond to those less fortunate and certain nonprofit organisations that perform work that benefits the community. We are pleased to embrace that responsibility. This gives us the opportunity to do good and attain a sense of fulfilment that is hard to match. Our various community activities unite lawyers and staff while improving the communities we call home. We continue to grow our CSR program and the impact they have in the years to come.
Fun Day with the Kids 2018
Date: 24 November 2018
Venue: Rumah SVP Klang, Taman Melawis
At Tay & Partners, we have always believed in giving back to the society and we are dedicated to creating positive changes that improve the lives of others.
On 24 November 2018, we visited the children of Rumah SVP Klang. The day kicked off with some exciting ice breaking games and a friendly game of football with the children.
After lunch, the children had a drawing contest to explore their creativity. Prizes were given to the children whose drawings racked up the most votes.
It truly was a great pleasure to be a small part of the children’s lives.
Rumah SVP Klang is located 30, Jalan Melawis, Taman Melawis, 41100 Klang. The children’s home is managed by the National Society of St. Vincent de Paul (Conference of Our Lady of Lourdes, Klang). The primary aim is to provide a nurturing and enabling environment for boys under the age of 12. We are delighted to have collaborated with the organisation on this project.
Help The Homeless 2017
Date: 24 November 2017
Venue: PitStop Community Café No. 101, Jalan Tun H.S Lee
With the goal of making a positive impact in communities in which we operate in, our people at Tay & partners are actively engaged in a series of activities to address the needs of our local communities.
On 24 November 2017, we were blessed to run our CSR project with Pit Stop Community Café, a local café whose mission are to offer warm and nourishing meals and daily essentials to anyone in the neighbourhood who needs them and assisting the marginalized communities to reintegrate into society. The cafe founder, Joycelyn Lee & Andrea Tan, said they want to give more to the community than just dishing out food.
This CSR project sees the distribution of free meals and daily essential kits. While other soup kitchens serve pre-packed food, Pit Stop serves patrons the food items that they had chosen. Patrons were also given the choice to pay and the amount they would like to contribute. It gives them a sense of dignity.
We are proud of the progress we have made this year. PitStop brought us closer to the lives in the community: the exchange of smiles and greetings has allowed us to make heart-to-heart connection within the community and that has led to the construction of meaningful relationships.
The PitStop Community Café is located at 101, Jalan Tun H.S Lee, Kuala Lumpur (near Bangkok Bank). If you would like to keep up with Pit Stop or contact them, they can be contacted at facebook.com/pitstopcafekl.
