2008 : giving out rice to the needy

LOCATION :CHENULANG, KELANTAN

This is the first that we documented by taking photos while doing the deed. The earliers ones were not properly documented so it is not possible to show.

18 Nov 08 : As + Team had gone back to Kelantan [her hometown] to distribute packets of rice to the poor folks there in Kampong Chenulang, Kuala Krai.

Some of the Houses they visited

Looking at the condition of their houses, it is a wonder that families do live here and why they are not entitled to get the benefits of the zakat.

However, at this time we only able to contribute rice, nothing more.

The packets of rice were distributed at a nearby School because the road to their houses were flooded

2009 : rebuilding existing surau

LOCATION :KUBANG KERIAN, KELANTAN

The original Surau used by the Villagers

This is a Surau in a Kampong in Kubang Kerian. A very run-down place is not abandoned + being used by the Villagers. Looking at this photos, don't you just cringed at the money spent on lavish mosques like KL Mosque, Putrajaya Mosque, etc

The timber floor were all rotten

During this earlier visit in November 2008, we were only able to contribute some floor mats + fans only. However, we vowed to at least improve the conditions of the Surau, after all this is a place of worship.

So in 2009, we engaged a local contractor to upgrade the existing Surau. The villagers voiced their grievances that the rainwater usually seeped in + making the Surau not practical. So the solution was to demolished the whole Surau + rebuilding it on a higher base.

The Surau after completion

Given the limited budget that we had at that time, we were quite happy with the result + we sure hope the villagers think the same too. The Surau is even equiped with a PA System + gaudy looking balustrates!

After the Surau was reconstructed, the villagers had a Kenduri with everyone coming together 'gotong-royong' cooking a feast

2009 : food galore to orphanage

LOCATION :KELANTAN
