Before that, let me share with all of you on what the event is all about. “Walk-a-Payung” is an annual event organized by Persatuan SLE Malaysia in conjunction with World Lupus Day. The objective of the event is to raise public awareness on SLE patients in avoiding sun and for fund raising.
As seen, all of the participants were dressed in provided red t-shirts and so do we. We also had been given away with umbrellas, Gardenia Breakfast Vouchers and Mineral Water prior to the event kickoff.
Some of our team members were busy finding the right place to hang our CSR Banner outside the hall and I guessed they had found the right one now.
7.45 morning, announcement has been made and all of us are required to present ourselves at assembly area. The 30 minutes warming up exercise were filled with joy and laughter.
Not many pictures taken during the 3km walks as everyone was under the hot sun and we could feel it right into our skin. Even though we were tired and exhausted but yet we still enjoying the walkathon and manage to broaden our smile in front of camera.
Atmosphere fills with energetic music and the place was totally crowded with participants and visitors. Some of other activities spotted on that day were exhibition stalls, food stalls, games, fund raising activities, dance performances and Lucky draws.
10.10 morning, we proceed for a “Free Basic Health Screening”. All of us take turn to register and queued up to get ourselves checked for free Body Mass Index, Blood Glucose and Blood Pressure Test.
As shown, all of us have done with the checkups and this is our health result. Therefore, to those who are underweight, do eat more and to those who are overweight, do take care on the amount of food consume.
Thanks to all Elabram Team Members for making this Walk-a-Payung event a success and thanks to all for spending the weekend together and hopefully we will have an opportunity to join this event again next year.
