Amante Nail Spa & Body Care: Charity Fair

Hello, my beautiful friends!

Who says that beauty is only skin deep? Amante Nail Spa & Body Care, a superlative spa for women housing popular beauty and wellness needs, is proving that there is more to beauty than meets the eye.

They will be hosting a one-day Charity Fair on 7 September 2014 from 10 AM to 6 PM. In conjunction with this fair, customers can purchase the Amante Charity Coupon Booklet for RM 35 each. The booklet contains 7 x RM 5 cash vouchers that you can use to purchase spa treatments, and for food, activities, and games at Amante Charity Fair. There's also a BONUS thank you RM 88 Hot Stone Massage treatment!

Proceeds from the Amante Charity Fair will be donated to Good Samaritan Home. It's a home for children in Malaysia. Amante believes that by helping to raise funds for this home, it would make learning possible for students of all ages, from pre-school to graduate school, providing basic education to those who need it most. 

Good Samaritan Home is a non-profit charitable children’s home committed to serve the poor and needy children in our society. Their aim is to provide for the physical, spiritual, and educational well being of the children. The home started operating in January 1999 with just one child and currently has 32 resident children and another 30 children in the Extension Program.

I'd like to share with you a few photos of the children and their life stories.

These 4 boys came to the home 6 years ago. James and Thomas are now in a special school as their parents had lots of problem and the boys were left without proper food. In fact, James was locked up in his room for more than 7 months. This has effected them, and it was a challenge for the staff of the Home. 

Gideon and Philip had no direction and discipline, and they became very difficult boys. Gideon lost both of his parents and had no interest in studies; Philip lost his dad and was placed from house to house. 

With proper nutrition, a home-like environment, love, and guidance, they are picking up well. Philip received his results for UPSR, and he scored 3As and 4Bs. He has done very well given the fact that he came from such a troubling background.

College boys can be quite difficult to work with, at least from the Home's point of view. Reuben graduated as a Male Nurse on 23 November 2013, and got a job at Khoo Teck Huat Hospital.

He came to the home at the age of 7 and was a playful boy. He lost his dad when he was very young. Like other underprivileged children, he moved from one place to another.

Every child needs love and care regardless of their backgrounds and ages.
This is what Good Samaritan Home does for underprivileged children.

Seeing all theses boys sleeping together, calling each other "brother" is an inspiration to the Home. It has been their desire when they set up Good Samaritan Home to let these children have another family. 

Daniel came to the home at the age of 6, and had a single mother. Now at the age of 21, he is doing his final year in Culinary Arts. He act as a big brother to all the children and they all call him "koko" (it means big brother in Cantonese). He acts as their big brother, helping them with their home work, showing them how things are done etc. His actions have inspired and motivated other boys and girls to feel at home.

Boys Together at Home

I'd like to invite you to join them on 7 September 2014 from 10 AM to 6 PM at Amante Kota Damansara to show your support for these amazing young children and to Good Samaritan Home.

The help that they have been receiving from donors and kind-hearted people have given them new hope. It will not be possible for the children to have a good environment, love, nutrition, and education without this help.
