Our unsung heroes need support

Kind souls: The Star Golden Hearts Award 2017 recipients celebrate with their prizes at the presentation ceremony, held at Menara Star.

LET me congratulate the 10 winners of the Star Golden Hearts Award 2017 (pic) for their selfless dedication in charitable and social work to help and empower the poor, people with disabilities, the marginalised and disadvantaged group, “Rewarding Malaysians who have Golden Hearts” (The Star, Nov 10).

I also applaud the remarkable initiative undertaken by Star Media Group to honour these unsung heroes who are actually ordinary people doing extraordinary charitable and social work that have created impactful social change to uplift the lives of the less fortunate.
