Hot on the heels of sponsoring the GEW Malaysia website, we created a website for the
Asian International Vocational Center. This is a center for disadvantaged children, to empower them with vocational skills that will see them through their adult life. A project by the
Kassim Chin Foundation, this is an effort by the Foundation for global literacy efforts, keeping literacy high by providing basic education to these children.
We were "discovered" by Milliee Kassim from the
Kassim Chin Foundation through her friend who liked one of the previous web designs we completed. Which is pretty cool, we think! Karyn and I went to meet her at her office in Petaling Jaya one day and learnt about this foundation, and the wonderful plans she had for the
Asian International Vocational Center.
A website was needed, she said, in preparation for the activities surrounding the groundbreaking ceremony for the center and all subsequent activities. The website would contain informative details about the foundation and the center, becoming an official information point for supporters, friends, the press and all interested parties. We were very impressed by the
plans for the Asian International Vocational Center, and after some discussions, decided to sponsor the website.
While we may not
know enough about poverty to create solutions like Milliee Kassim has, or have enough cash in the vaults to bankroll admirable efforts like hers, we can still play a part using our skills in web design and software technology.
Some projects are just good for the soul.
