Tabung Amal Aidilfitri Charity Drive Campaign 2009
With the festive season Hari Raya fast approaching, many malay counterparts would be busy at this time preparing to beautify their homes. For the less fortunate community, they may face challenges in doing up their homes. However, by working with Tabung Amal Association(TAA trust Fund), we hope to foster the spirit of giving in this multi racial community by working on home improvement projects for the needy family & placing donation boxes at all Home-Fix outlets.
The launch of the TAA charity campaign 2009 on 15 Aug 09 at Tanjong Katong Complex was a success. The event was launched by the guest of honour, Minister In Charge of Muslim Affairs, Mr Yaacob Ibrahim. Home-Fix as one of the sponsors, contributed a Home-Fix toolbox as a token for the needy. The purpose for the Home-Fix toolbox was to empower users to be self reliant and work on their home improvement projects with confidence. Commonly used items,such as spanner and hammer are included to make the tool box a total solution for any improvement projects!

From 23rd Aug onwards, Home-Fix together with their team of enthusiastic staff & volunteers from TAA will start brightening these homes together. They will go through a home improvement session with Home-Fix on the basics of painting, bulbs changing, basic plumping tips & etc. For Home-Fix, its hard labour turns sweet when they’ve just make a difference and light up someone's life!
We have identified 12 homes for a start, these houses will be given a coat of fresh paint, changing of existing light bulbs to energy saving bulbs & installation of water saving devices to reduce the residents’ utilities bills. We hope to make the homes of the needy muslim more livable for this new year!
TAA Trust Fund was started in 1992, its objective is to raise funds from the general public, especially during the fasting of month of Ramadan and distributed them to the poor and needy, the chronically ill and kidney patients.
