Corporations and individuals came together to give eat X dignity café, a transformational enterprise by Dignity for Children Founda-tion, a makeover.
After serving the Sentul community for over seven years, the cafe now has a refreshed look with a new menu.
When sponsorships and donations were hard to come by in the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic, several parties jumped to its help.
Assistance came in cash and in kind with pro-bono offers of individual skills and expertise.
Among the partners that came together were Berjaya Cares Foundation, Ikea, Bunga Design Atelier, ID’Zire, Suri International Sdn Bhd, Coffex, Barista Guild Asia, Monin, the National Evangelical Christian Fellowship (NECF) and renowned Malaysian photographer SC Shekar.
Dignity co-founder Pastor Elisha Satvinder said: “The X in eat X dignity represents collaboration, intersection and connection between communities and Dignity. This has proven true as Malaysians come together time and again to give us a helping hand.”
“Dignity believes in providing an authentic, engaging, and holistic education.
“We aim to give our students the vocational training they need. At the same time, they are exposed to the value of preparing nutritious food that is locally sourced, delicious and affordable,” he added.
The refurbished café in Jalan 11/48a, Sentul Raya Boulevard, opened on July 13. It offers affordable local, western and fusion dishes.
It is open for private events on-site and will resume its external catering service soon.
