Instead of a staple diet of sardine, omelette and rice, homemaker Norizan Razallan, 38, can finally look forward to serving more nutritious meals to her family.

The mother of one received boxes full of groceries recently, thanks to non-governmental organisation (NGO) Great Vision Charity Association (GVCA), or Persatuan Harapan Mulia, a sister NGO of Great Heart Charity Association that emphasises the importance of education and awareness in transforming our society.
