My Story

Did you know ? There are 43 million people who are severely blind and 295 million people who are moderate-to-severe visual impairment on this world. A lot of people in this world don’t have ability to experience the wonders of this world. That’s where the angels of St Nicholas Home come in. St Nicholas’ Home is a non-profit and non-governmental charitable organization that aims to respond to the evolving needs of the blind and visually impaired (BVI) community in Malaysia, irrespective of their religion, race and background.(snh.org.my, 2023) It is located at 4, Jalan Bagan Jermal, 10250 Georgetown, Pulau Pinang. With more than 10000 volunteers in their team, they have been providing multiple services and training for the BVI since 1926, such as education, rehabilitation, low vision care, social work and more. St Nicholas’s Home has been consistently impacting the society for the better. Some notable events include : Partnered with Penang Adventist Hospital to offer free cataract surgeries to the needy patients. Hosted events such as “World Sight Day” to raise awareness on eye care and prevent avertable blindness. Celebrates “White Cane Day” every October since the year 1986 to raise awareness about equal rights for the blind and visually impaired. Raised RM40,000 through the “L’Occitane Race for Vision” to raise awareness regarding avertable blindness, and to fund free cataract surgeries project. More than 7,000 runners participated in the run. St Nicholas’ Home is a worthy and respectable organization that has a noble goal of helping the blind and visually impaired, and even helping society to prevent preventable blindness before it’s too late. St Nicholas’ Home deserves our full support and utmost respect for caring about the BVI and society. However, due to St Nicholas’ Home being a non-profit and non-governmental charitable organization, they receive no profit and can only operate using their own funding or through donations. Therefore, this fundraising event aims to help St Nicholas’ Home in terms of funding.
