Celebrating two events

IN THE spirit of giving and making a difference to the planet and community, Dell celebrated its commitment to the environment, community and the people through its Charity Run and Family Day 2011, held simultaneously in Selangor and Penang.

Over 3,360 Dell employees and their family members participated in the Charity Run and Family Day recently, aimed at raising funds for causes that are close to their hearts. Through employee pledges and corporate matching, Dell managed to collect a total of RM254,000 in aid of six charities and non-profit organisations. They are Pusat Penjagaan Kanak-Kanak Cacat Klang, Rumah Anak Yatim Taman Baiduri, House of Hope, Shan Children’s Home, Charis Hospice, and the United Nations Children’s Fund (Unicef). This year’s collection was more than double the amount achieved in 2010.
