PPB Properties launched a charity kiosk space at Level 1 of Cheras LeisureMall to empower registered non-governmental organisations and social enterprises with entrepreneurial skills by providing them with a space to sell their products. In February, we welcomed our first NGO, Dual Blessing, which sold its premium handmade cookies, snacks, and drinks at the kiosk. This non-profit organisation provides vocational training to the differently-abled and former drug addicts.
The charity kiosk at Level 1, Cheras LeisureMall, welcomed two new tenants. In April 2022, Silent Teddies Bakery, a social enterprise that provides hearing-impaired youths with training and skills in the F&B industry, joined the kiosk. From May to June 2022, Persatuan STAND, a non-profit organisation that sells handmade pies made by special needs youths, was also part of the kiosk. Persatuan STAND raised more than RM9,000 from their sales, which is a commendable achievement.
The Community Charity Kiosk aims to provide NGOs and social enterprises with an avenue to raise awareness and showcase their initiatives and/or products. The kiosk enables them to reach more potential customers, increase their revenue, and provide them with wider exposure and perspective. It is a great initiative to help these organisations and enterprises to promote their products and generate income while contributing to their cause.
