KFC presented a $3,000 donation to Pusat Ehsan Al-Ameerah Al-Hajjah Maryam (Pusat Ehsan) in conjunction with the Hari Raya Aidilfitri celebrations and as part of its continuous corporate social responsibility initiative.
The donation was handed over during a special KFC Raya celebration night held at the Pusat Ehsan.
The event was attended by children of Pusat Ehsan, KFC Brunei staff, and Norlyn Rufo, Market Leader of KFC Brunei, who also handed a mock cheque for $3,000 to a representative of Pusat Ehsan.
“One of the activities that bring joy to us as a company is the chance to spread love and happiness, and to work closely with charitable bodies.
“With Hari Raya Aidilfitri just around the corner, we are happy to share the festive joy with the children from Pusat Ehsan over some finger lickin’ good treats,” said Jaymee Lau, a staff from KFC’s Marketing Department.
