We embody gratefulness and thankfulness in our lives – Donation to Cancer Patients

Reflecting on our past donation event fills our hearts with gratitude! We are still in awe of the incredible success of our past donation event! We always believed in giving back to society and leaving the world in a better state than we found it as this is what gratefulness and thankfulness is about.

Thanks to the kindness and generosity of our amazing Blacksians, we were able to raise RM16,150 to support MAKNA (Majlis Kanser Nasional / National Cancer Council). Their contributions have made a lasting impact and have helped to provide curative, preventive, research and support services to cancer patients & their families in Malaysia and around the world with a holistic approach encompassing financial, physical, emotional and educational support.

Let's continue to spread kindness and make a difference together!

The president and founder, Dato' Mohd Farid Ariffin who started MAKNA after losing his son to cancer, has a vision; to pool and utilise all efforts, expertise, and finance of all sectors of society to fight cancer and reduce related pain, morbidity and the suffering that cancer patients undergo.
