Resorts World Genting celebrates Ramadan with underprivileged children

In the true spirit of Ramadan, Resorts World Genting (RWG) recently hosted 25 underprivileged children from Rumah Titian Kaseh at a special breaking of fast event.

The CSR event was organized in collaboration with Genting Green Generation (G3), a RWG’s employee volunteer initiative focused on environmental conservation.

Held at Resorts World Awana (RWA) during Ramadan and in conjunction with Earth Hour, the gathering represented a meaningful blend of cultural observance and sustainability efforts.

“We are delighted to provide children from disadvantaged backgrounds with an opportunity to enjoy fun environmental activities and breaking of fast in the serene ambiance of Resorts World Awana this Ramadan,” said Genting Malaysia Bhd vice president of corporate communications and public relations Dato’ Sri Kay Atisha Parasuraman.

The children enjoyed the sumptuous spread of East Coast delicacies at Jom Makan Awana, such as Kambing Bakar, Ayam Percik, Sup Aneka, Rendang Tok, Singgang Kelantan, Ayam Cincalok, Urab Nangka and a variety of traditional Malay kuih.

Each child received duit raya and a goodie bag containing souvenirs such as a black gibbon plushie, Genting Highland Heroes activity book and a sand art kit, presented by Dato’ Sri Kay Atisha, alongside Khew Choon Teck, vice president of Resorts World Awana.

Prior to the feast, the children, aged between 5 and 17, participated in meaningful activities, including seedling planting at RWA’s Herb Garden and a nature walk on the Awana Trail, where they learned about the region’s rich flora and fauna.

In a creative session, the children showcased their artistic talents through hand printing, followed by a symbolic observance of Earth Hour, during which they lit candles and tea lights with G3 volunteers to support environmental conservation efforts.
