BUTTERWORTH: Helping the needy isn’t just a one-off thing for Chua Sui Hau.
Those who seek help from his non-profit organisation would eventually become a “family” of sorts to him.
One Hope Charity and Welfare Berhad, which he founded 17 years ago, would hold an annual gathering for them.“To me, it has been the greatest gift to see babies with congenital heart disease who required expensive surgery, now growing up and running around with no ailment, or amputees now walking comfortably with their prosthetics, or those who were unwell completely recovered. The happiest thing that can happen is seeing their lives change and improve,” he added.
Chua said the number of patients who approached the organisation for help had increased over the years, adding that this has made them even more committed to their task.“We also provide free health check-ups for the low-income groups to allow them to better understand their health condition and get early treatment.
“We have various assistance funds such as a medical fund, funeral and burial assistance fund, living cost assistance fund, among others. Donors are welcome to donate any amount,” he said.He learnt from his mother at a very young age that it was important to help people.
