Limkokwing Borneo - "GO BALD"

“GO BALD” aims to support cancer patients by letting them know that their baldness is just a temporary setback on the road to recovery. The campaign is held to raise donations and support for the Sarawak Children’s Cancer Society (SCCS).

 

Support Limkokwing staff and students going bald and performing a Flash Mob Dance to raise awareness for the Sarawak Children’s Cancer Society

“GO BALD” aims to support cancer patients by letting them know that their baldness is just a temporary setback on the road to recovery. The campaign is held to raise donations and support for the Sarawak Children’s Cancer Society (SCCS).

Limkokwing Borneo fully supports this charitable move and this is just one of the many community activities carried out by Limkokwing staff and students who aim to foster a sense of care and responsibility towards the community. Limkokwing Borneo has been a strong supporter of SCCS. Last year, as part of the Nigerian National Day celebration, staff and students conducted a “gotong royong” campaign at the SCCS.

This year, in support of “GO BALD”, Limkokwing staff, Trina Mayang Anthony, Kenny Ley and Azhari Rahim will shave their heads at The Spring on Sunday to show solidarity and support for the campaign and the children who are undergoing treatment for cancer.

To lend additional support, 200 members of staff and students of Limkokwing Borneo will perform a Flash Mob Dance on Saturday May 15, 2010. This will be the first time that Flash Mobbers will strike Kuching!!!

Last year, the GO BALD event raised more than RM200,000 in pledges and donations. SCCS's goal this year, beyond raising awareness of childhood cancer and offering moral support, is to raise RM1 million for the construction of a new SCCS centre in the hopes of providing better care and support to cancer patients.
