The “With All Our Hearts” Malaysian AEON Foundation
Charity Gala Dinner 2011:
A Night of Heritage, The Malaysian Batik
15
JULY 2011
It was certainly a night of glamorous fashion and royal excitement, when the
Malaysian AEON Foundation hosted their annual
Charity Gala Dinner 2011 in the Grand Ballroom
of the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre, on Friday,
15 July 2011.
The primary objective of the Charity Gala Dinner event was to raise funds for
needy Malaysian children and disadvantaged
youths.
The
Guest of Honour was no less than our noble
and honoured queen, Her Majesty Seri Paduka
Baginda Raja Permaisuri Agong Tuanku Nur
Zahirah.
This
year, the Charity Gala Dinner was organised
in collaboration with the renowned Galeri
Seri Endon, which showcases the finest designs
in batik, created by some of Malaysia’s leading
designers.
Appropriately,
the theme for the event was “A Night Of Heritage,
The Malaysian Batik”, and everyone came dressed
to the nines in glorious Malaysian batik.
The
main event for the Charity Gala Dinner was
an eye-opening fashion show, with models
parading a myriad of beautiful Malaysian
batik-based clothes and accessories.
After
the fashion show, a cheque handover ceremony
of RM1 million to the AEON 1% Club was held.
The funds collected in aid of the Japan Earthquake
Victims was generated through Malaysian AEON
Foundation’s fundraising drive titled “Spread
The Wings of Love” donation campaign from
12th March to 2nd May 2011.
To
round up the function, the highlight of the
night was introduced – an exciting, pulsating
performance by Dato’ Sheila Majid, the undisputed
jazz queen of Malaysia!
The
organising committee of the Malaysian AEON
Foundation would like to express their gratitude
to all their guests, business partners and
all who attended the function, as well as
those who have generously supported and given
to the foundation.
